A great place to celebrate completing the first half of our Wild Atlantic Way road trip ( N to S)
Pros:

The 12 theme was distinctive and played out in the room numbering and other details. Loved the big mirrors on the corridors too!

Cons:

Could have done with a bit more seating in the public areas but it was a busy Saturday night with a good vibe!

Lovely hotel which met our comfort and wheelchair accessible requirements.
Pros:

I requested a wheelchair accessible bedroom and it met all my requirements.

Cons:

The breakfast was delicious however the pastries and other food at the buffet table were low or already gone.

However, when I asked about if I could have some pastries a very helpful staff member explained that there were none left and offered me warm scones instead.
