Will definitely be back
Pros:

The food was excellent, both at breakfast and evening meal. Great choice at breakfast in both hot and cold and everything fresh, hot and tasty. Service in restaurant in evening top class.
The bedrooms have a spacious feel and are bigger than a lot of hotels I have stayed in.

Urlaub in Irland
Pros:

Die Zimmer waren sehr komfortabel und sehr gefällig ausgestattet. Leider gibt es im Hotel keine Möglichkeit, Schmutzwäsche reinigen zu lassen. Auch der Getränkeautomat war kaputt.

Cons:

Im Vergleich zu anderen Hotels war das Personal nicht so hilfsbereit und freundlich.

Pros:

Sauberkeit

Cons:

Das Hotel hat keinen Charakter. Für den Preis bekommt man eine in die Jahre gekommene Ausstattung und ein Zimmer im Erdgeschoss neben der Straße oder der Terasse. Abgeschieden gelegen.

good but not great
Pros:

The hotel is in a lovely location. The foyer is very large and bright, pale colours, impersonal, and lacking a warm welcome vibe.
The room (105) was a bit of a disappointment. It was dark: chipped black-painted furniture, some loose handles, and grey soft furnishing. The not very wide wardrobe was annoyingly short of hanging space as it contained the ironing board and iron, and the safe on a mid-level shelf.
The bathroom was bright, there were plenty of towels ,and a large, mirrored-door, cabinet. But the left hand tap on the washbasin turned on in a clockwise direction and this had fooled a lot of people, so the tap was wobbly from people trying hard to get water out of it in the normal way. The spacious shower was powerful but the very lowest heat setting was still very hot. The toilet had a temperamental flush - don't cleaners report these things?
The breakfast was good and there was something for everybody, and the room was bright and airy. The waiting staff were also good. They 'lose' one star though as one morning there was an eyelash on my side plate and the cup appeared to have just had cold water swirled around in it and then put back out for use.
