Pros:

Check in was very easy and the front desk agent (Mash) was very welcoming to the hotel. He was knowledgeable and gave the hotel a far more professional look in the way he worked and communicated - by doing this he stood out from everyone else working at the hotel that night.
My room was extremely clean and comfortable- very quiet too. No complaints on what is a well ran budget end motel type property- great value for money and I’d definitely return.

Good hotel - management need to arrange sufficient staff
Pros:

Myself and my husband booked a 2 night stay at the Premier Inn as we have family in the area.

The hotel room was clean and adequately equipped for our needs and we have stayed here on several occasions.

Unfortunately the hotel was understaffed and I felt very sorry for the staff as they were overwhelmed with working on the reception, bar and restaurant. I understand that the Management knew that it would be a busy weekend but failed to arrange sufficient staff.

I cannot fault the staff, who all retained their composure dealing the pressure they were under. Well done to all of them who worked on Friday evening and Saturday morning (28th and 29th Nov).

A note for the manager - to ensure there are enough staff when they know there are a lot of rooms booked to the Premier Inn.

Absolutely wonderful hotel and staff!
Pros:

First time staying in Derrys Cross. Me and my daughter went to the theatre which is literally a stones throw away. Check in was easy, the room was beautiful and clean, the shower was amazing. I cant compliment the staff enough they were all really friendly and helpful, even when my daughter lost the key card. The manager was really kind to her. We will definitely be back. Thank you soooooo much! Oh and the breakfast was wonderful! My daughter ate free too, added bonus!

Charlie - duty manager - superb!
Pros:

Charlie the duty manager was superb! Really helpful advice on parking for security and also helping us find the best room for our family needs (cot etc). Charlie - if we may say - was a credit to Premier Inn and the hotel.

Really grateful.

Great customer service from Mash and truly made my stay more comfortable. This is my second visit to this hotel and that’s solely because of manager Mash. I will be returning again.

Dated but clean and comfortable
Pros:

On the whole an enjoyable experience rooms clean and comfortable breakfast ample the only downside was in the bar area the lad working the bar could probably do with a hand as at one point he was serving drink serving food doing reception and tending to customer needs but the whole time staying polite and professional which I personally think was a credit to him I think his name was mash.

Great staff going above and beyond. In particular Mash!
Pros:

On the first night of stay we went down for dinner and a drink. It was a busy evening with few staff working. Mash was very friendly and attentive to everyone and despite being busy did everything to make sure mum and I had everything we needed. He was friendly, kind and caring. Such a lovely man! Absolute star

Mash was so accommodating when dining at restaurant. He was apologetic when things went wrong with food order and made sure we were satisfied with the outcome. He was contented with our stay and wanted us to feel we could come back again feeling reassured. Thank u Mash. 😀
