FRUSTRATING
Pros:

Most staff were very pleasant. Good food.

Cons:

A staff member refused to accept currency from Northern Ireland stating it was not legal tender. This is factually incorrect. I find it incredible that this issue still exists today. The last time I experienced it was in Glasgow back in the year 1993. Unbelievable as NI currency is accepted in most all other businesses within the United Kingdom, of which Northern Ireland is of course part of. Extremely disappointing and of course ruined our evening. I WOULD APPRECIATE A FORMAL RESPONSE TO THIS MATTER PLEASE. THANK YOU.

Aircon far too loud to lay me sleep
Pros:

Clean, decent breakfast, good free WiFi

Cons:

Aircon so loud I could not sleep and to turn it off the room became an oven partly due to the fact your could not turn the bathroom heated mirror off

Expensive basic hotel
Pros:

The rooms were very comfortable and had a sofa and table which was ideal for using my laptop, with power sockets in all the usual and convenient places. The bathroom was clean and bright with everything needed to make the stay comfortable. The hotel was rather quiet, and the staff pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

The price was too high for the fact it's surrounded by car infrastructure and nothing for people to actually do. The breakfast was incredibly basic and very inconsistent on what it offered, with no staff present to answer questions - which would have been useful as allergy information or dietary suitability was not present on any signage. The air con was difficult to control, my dial was installed the wrong way around so initially I could only have it "on" or "off" using the card electricity switch. Eventually I fixed it, but the pervasive air conditioning system made the hotel exceptionally dry. There was also not enough storage for clothes or other items, with only a tiny clothing rail and a few shelf like surfaces.
