Pros:

A deilitefull setting

Cons:

I was somewhat surprised that there was a charge of €10 for a late check out. I regularly visit hotels my last being the Clayton in Belfast when I asked for a late check out because my train was 1 pm much like my situation today.,,,

I’ve stayed In apartments and B&Bs in Wexford a lot that were around or above the rate I paid that had better facili
Pros:

The location and the staff were lovely and accommodated any needs.

Cons:

The room was not the cleanest. The shower had mould, and the shower head had a heavy build-up of limescale. It also didn’t function properly, spraying water unevenly while the centre of the shower head only dripped, so the water came out mainly from the outer nozzles.

The headboard was very dusty, and the room itself also felt dusty, which was particularly problematic as I have a sensitivity to dust.

The TV remote barely worked unless I stood on the bed, as the TV was mounted so high that the remote would only register from very close to it.

Overall, the cleanliness and maintenance of the room did not meet the standard I expected.

An okay stay in a rather tired hotel
Pros:

The hotel was easy to find, parking reasonably accessible, and the receptionist pleasant.

Cons:

The town of Wexford is a 10 minute walk across the bridge - fine provided it's dry. However, the hotel itself is rather tired and in need of a refresh. The shower had a strong odour of drains. There is no USB phone charging provision (as several other hotels offer nowadays). Sound isolation is poor, such that doors slammed late at night elsewhere in the building are clearly and disturbingly audible.

Pros:

Good location, very friendly and pleasant staff.

Cons:

Old hotel, needs a full renovation. It was maybe a nice hotel in the 80's, but it should not be allowed to be open anymore. The carpet in the hallway and room is smelly, it looks like it was never changed since they open it.

Pros:

The bed and the coffee machine

Cons:

The room was very outdated and smelled. I did ask to be moved but the other two rooms were worse. We couldn't even hang up our clothes in the wardrobe because it smelled of must. The skirting boards were dirty and the bathroom was cringe worthy.
