- Le lit confortable
- La propreté
- La bonne situation pour visiter.
- La chambre mal éclairée

Cons:

- La fenêtre donnant sur une cour très bruyante à cause d'une ventilation forcée.
- L'étroitesse de la chambre au vu de son prix assez élevé.

Do not recommend.
Pros:

Only good thing was location. But they do not offer discount for car park which every other city hotel in Ireland offers

Cons:

Air conditioning didn’t work. Booked a suite got a room with three beds squashed into it with no room to move and nowhere to put luggage

Your staff are exceptional the hotel looks a very happy place to work Size of the room
Cons:

We booked the small room.which was much too small for any hotel to have.
As we were staying for 3 nights I think someone should have advised me that the room was that small.

Pros:

La ubicación es muy buena.

Cons:

El baño no tenia ni shampo ni crema de enjuague. Al requerirlo en recepción, y ante exhaustiva búsqueda sólo nos pudieron proporcionar shampo, ya que no contaban con crema de enjuague.
