Staff are very friendly and helpful, proximity to the ferry is brilliant.

Unscheinbare nette Unterkunft
Pros:

Das Hotel entsprach unseren Erwartungen, haben wir es einfach nur als nahegelegene Übernachtungsmöglichkeit nach der Fährfahrt von Dublin nach Holyhead genutzt. Zudem ist es eines der wenigen Unterkünfte dort, die Hunde erlauben.
Der Besitzer ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns sehr nett unterhalten.
Das Essen im Haus ist gut, der Service voll in Ordnung, das lokale Bier sehr süffig und die Preise sind angemessen.
Alles in allem ist es zu empfehlen und wir würden es immer wieder buchen.
