Pros:

De kamer was heel netjes. Eens je binnen was en de kaartsleutel uit het kluisje bemachtigd had, was deze formule zeer gebruiksvriendelijk.

Cons:

De betaling verliep niet via booking, wat voor verwarring ( phishing?) zorgde.
Na betaling kregen we echter snel de code tot de sleutelkluis.
De kamer was aan de kleine kant. Geen ruimte om valise te openen, tenzij op het bed.
We hebben geen personeel gezien. Ook niet om -zoals gevraagd- de handdoeken te vervangen.

Pros:

The room was OK. It was well equipped.

Cons:

It is a self check in place but they forgot to provide us the information to check ourself in. We arrived in the middle of the night after a long trip so it was very unconfortable to realize that we can not get in. Especially wen the provided phone number broke the line immediatelly.
Fortunately they picked up the phone later and we got help and managed to get in.
Not considering this inconvenience, the place was decent.

Pros:

Location is good, close to the main bus stop towards Dublin. The beachfront is a 15 mins walk, so that’s quite nice.

Cons:

The check in process could be better. Was informed that the check in would be at 3PM, however the keycard wasn’t available till 3:30PM after having to call the reception.

FYI, there is no onsite reception, but one located at another hotel 15 mins away.
