My partner and I stayed here for a night. We had come from Dublin and Louth! From the time we arrived we loved the spot. The staff are so happy and friendly and helpful. Unfortunately for us we had a situation with missing wallets bags phones after a night out. When I spoke to the staff they were just so so so amazing. I have never ever experienced such kindness and consideration from hotel staff as i have here! They helped us cancel cards and track phones and they were so accommodating towards us until we finally got our belongings back! Thank you so much in particular to the manager!!! I highly recommend this spot! Kindness goes a long long way!!!!

The place looks nice, and I was impressed upon walking in until I made it to the front desk. Service was poor and not welcoming. He seemed annoyed we were there.
