Great - would stay again.
Pros:

Stayed at the nearby Airport Hotel previously, and that's fine, but I found this experience overall better - staff great, very nice spacious room indeed, great atmosphere in the hotel bar, place is alive, free parking. Would certainly stay again.

Cons:

Surprisingly only one quite small lift, so some patience required at busy times.

Nice
Pros:

The hotel is in a convenient location, which made it very easy to airport.

The room was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The bed was comfortable, and the facilities were more than sufficient for a short city stay. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional, making the check-in and overall experience smooth.

The breakfast was also a nice addition, with a good variety of choices to start the day.

Comfortable room . Lovely restaurant.
Pros:

Very friendly , helpful staff. Location was excellent as close to family we were visiting . Walking distance from airport .

Cons:

Although location suited us , for anything other than a short trip a car would be essential as hotel on an industrial estate. Bus service helped as stopped right outside .

Decent and convenient
Pros:

Good location, ample parking, clean linen and family room was spacious.

Cons:

Breakfast was not great, choice was okay but the quality was very average. Irish breakfast items nothing was tasty. Orange juice, water was getting finished and not refilled on time until customers were waiting. Fruit was not tasty and blueberry milkshake I think it was I couldn't drink a sip. Staff was lovely I can see they were trying hard and working hard but busy breakfast time they were scrambling. Maybe need more staff?
