Pros:

Comfortable room, decent size. Great range for breakfast options

Cons:

At night, they turn on aircon to the max at the bar,
was so cold couldnt enjoy the over priced drink I had purchased. Ended up having to go to the room.

Over priced pint, had to ask the barman to fill the pint of Guinness, was filled below the rim of the glass, and proceeded tl give out to me when I asked him to fill the glass properly.

The shower in room was odd, could barely fit around the shower door, very strange design
