Good value accommodation above a lively bar
Pros:

It was a great room for the price above a busy Irish bar . You could hear the music from downstairs in the room but that didn’t bother me at all

Cons:

Worth every penny

Happy weekend
Pros:

I loved my weekend stay here. The staff are so accommodating and lovely. They even did me a small breakfast, as I can't eat the large one. The chambermaid was extremely polite and friendly. The area is very close to Seven Kings Station and shops. Would definitely come back again. Thank you for looking after me

Cons:

Nothing not to like
