Great food and staff.
Pros:

Value for money and location . Food and staff were excellent

Cons:

It’s not that I didn’t like the property. Just some small observations regarding the bathroom.
1. Found the shower difficult to manage .
2. The soap and shampoo dispensers were extremely difficult to operate.
Had to use both hands to squeeze which defeats the purpose and meant it spilt onto the floor or into the bath .
I found this very frustrating .
Other than that I enjoyed my stay

chambre propre, personnel très agréable. très bien pour une nuit de passage.
Pros:

c'est un hôtel familial, c'est un grand hôtel, il y a, en plus des gens qui séjournent, des évènements organisés ce qui fait que l'hôtel est assez vivant

Cons:

hôtel assez bruyant. nous avons fait seulement une nuit car athlone était une étape sur notre chemin. nous préférons habituellement les petits hôtels de charmes plutôt que les hôtel classiques sans charme particulier où toutes les chambres se ressemblent. petit déjeuner avec beaucoup de produits industriels. hôtel est tout de même bruyant car des personnes de l'extérieur peuvent venir fêter des évènements, certaines personnes de respectent pas de baisser le volume sonore pour respecter les personnes, a 3h du matin par exemple !
