We were a bit surprised when we had to walk up a set of stairs with no elevator to get to our room 216 way at the back of the hotel. The hotel was lovely and the meals and eating areas were superb.

The pictures on the app looked great and we really booked for the gym as it was in the area we wanted and had facilities. It didn’t open until 10 on a Sunday which is crazy. The hotel was incredibly run down, surprisingly so. Would NOT stay again.

Needs updating. Our rooms were small and very warm. Windows opened very little. The cleaners used a very powerful, perfumy disinfection which was overwhelming

Views of the Irish Sea!
Great hotel close to the ocean with a great pool and fitness club across the parking lot. Walking trail/nature trail is a nice walk to the beach. Front desk staff was superb! Answered all of our questions, gave suggestions and were very helpful. Ate dinner at the restaurant and the included breakfast was delightful. They poached an egg for me and they will also make pancakes to order. Everything else is self serve buffet with everything you could want for breakfast ! A nice respite on our busy trip through Ireland!

Beds comfy, great window and view. We stayed in 7 hotels during our time in Ireland and this was the most expensive, which makes it seem like bad value because we had to clean the bath ourselves - it was full of dirt and hair. This was quite upsetting but as it was late we didn’t want to have to move. The corridor downstairs didn’t smell good which is another reason we didn’t want to move, we also didn’t want to lose our lovely view and comfy beds. It’s just a shame the bathroom was so run down and left dirty and hairy because for the cost you would really expect high quality cleaning. The hotel definitely needs updating and cleaning properly, or the price reduced to reflect the quality. I paid extra as a treat thinking it would be fancy, but even the cheapest hotel we stayed in this trip had a clean bathroom. Bit of a shame but aside from that we had a lovely stay.
