Cheapest hotel around Derry but everything high standard. Lovely food and bar and breakfast cooked fresh when you come down in morning. Beds large and comfortable and the showers are massive. Can't fault this hotel in any way. In Derry often for the weekend with motorcycle club and will be using this hotel from now on

Cons:

Nothing to dislike

Pros:

Horrible is an understatement for the service I have received here, there is no way this place is still up and running

Cons:

Don't get me started on the snarky comments of the staff, the clogged bathroom, and the attitude of the people, pretty unhelpful and nasty vibes

Pros:

The proximity to Central station is ideal if you have an early or late train. Everything was clean and it was not busy. It is secure.

Cons:

Outside the street is noisy at night, in particular after premises shut up for the night. There are a variety of reasons for it. But they are all outside the hotel's control. If you need quiet for sleeping, make a note to request a room that is not facing onto the street.
