Very noisy
Pros:

Central location

Cons:

The irony of a sign saying "please keep the noise down between 10pm and 8am" in a room above a pub playing live music until midnight, and a cafe playing music at 6am, was something special.

Three times someone tried to enter our room at night.

Bathroom needs repairs.

Bed was small.

Kann man mal machen
Pros:

Die Lage ist perfekt mitten in der Stadt

Cons:

Aufgrund der zentralen Lage ist es sehr laut. Das Zimmer hat keinen Komfort. Für eine Nacht geht es schon.

alojamiento con encanto en Donegal
Pros:

Nos tocó una habitación en la última planta con vistas a The Square. La habitación amplia y el baño completo, todo perfecto. La cama de matrimonio también muy bien, muy comoda. Las indicaciones para llegar también muy claras. Aparcamos el coche en el parking que tienen en la parte de atras, no se reserva, va por orden de llegada. Y para sacar el coche tienes que meter una moneda de 2€

Cons:

El colchón de la cama auxiliar era horrible, ni para un rato.

Pros:

Central location and comfy beds. Easy self check in and safe private car park out the back.

Cons:

Shared bathroom was outdated and not too clean. Car park was very tight and tricky to access from the road.
