Never again
Pros:

It was warm and receptionist was very friendly

Cons:

En-suite wasn’t very clean , breakfast was not very good, full Irish breakfast consisted of one sausage, one rasher , one egg, and a tiny soaked in grease boxty, asked for pot of coffee, got cup of coffee, definitely very disappointing for the money we spent, will not recommend this hotel to anyone
