Pros:

Staff super friendly and helpful. Very clean and great location.

Cons:

Such a shame that there were no cocktails served on Saturday night at the hotel bar. Gent that was serving us was super nice but was only covering the bar and wouldn't normally be there.

Pros:

Amazing, unmatched sea view. Every single member of staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for access to black rock. Parking is decent too.

Cons:

The room was pretty poorly cleaned. Long black hairs in the bed, in the bathroom and there was dust on most surfaces, indicating that the room is was not fully cleaned. The TV is pretty outdated, and did not work the first night. The AC is pretty poor but only recently have we found the need for it in Ireland so that can be excused a little. The breakfast was incredibly mediocre, pretty flavorless and not many options outside a full Irish. Saying this is a 4 star hotel is a bit of a stretch. I can imagine it is worth the money if you get a standard room, I got the Executive room, and its a bit expensive for what you get.

Pros:

I have stayed at many hotels over the years, and this is the first one where the air conditioning actually worked exceptionally well. Kudos to the staff for maintaining the property so well.

The hotel was very clean, and the service was outstanding. The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help with anything we needed.

The hotel's location is also excellent. There is a police station nearby, and a bus stop is just a short walk away, making it a convenient and comfortable place to stay.
