Staff was wonderful. They upgraded us to a big unit which was so helpful as we were leaving for California and needed to repack everything after being on the road for 5 weeks. It was a 2 minute walk to the beach. Driving to the airport from the hotel was a breeze and no traffic. Loved our stay there.

It is an older hotel, comfortable and quiet. It boast of friendly staff, good breakfast. Close to a beach and train station. We took the train to Dublin for a bit over 8 euros round trip. We were able to walk to all the important tourist attractions from the Pearless train station. We enjoyed staying here.

A comfortable stay
A very pleasant stay. Room size larger than usual and the hotel is in a good condition. Car parking is free although larger cars could struggle to negotiate the car park as it is rather tight! Breakfast was nice, albeit a somewhat limited spread.
