Great location and even better staff
Pros:

While I’m reluctant to write this review because of this hidden gem, I feel compelled to. The front desk staff at this hotel is absolutely incredible. They were so kind and accommodating to us after our lost luggage, hospital trip and and other requests we had. They truly made it a 5 star experience! Highly recommend

Super staff, fab breakfast in a lovely space and I will be back. Thank you all for your hospitality. Audrey Flanagan
Pros:

I liked everything about my stay except for all the loud music and fairly drunk people in the bar on Friday evening. I had invited friends around but we didn’t stay and instead I took them to Orange Square for a drink. Friday evening at 7.00 was really not what the hotel is about in my opinion.

Cons:

Liked everything except the above. I loved my stay and you have exceptional staff. My room was lovely and I will certainly be back. I was widowed in the last few years and while I had friends staying in a small hotel up the street I felt very safe and comfortable in the Óbal which is very important.

Great city to visit
Pros:

The hotel is super clean, room has plenty of space and the people working there are very dedicated. Especially Sara at the front desk, she has been helpful during our stay and she has provided good tips (restaurant and what to do). She is a master key for the front desk.
