We had book this as a stop over and as they say you get what you pay for but i have the feeling that i did not get that
on the photo's the beds were all on the floor ,
We book for 3 people, once in the room we had 2 single beds and on top a bunk bed ( of which the ladder was not that safe
the room smelled of smoke very badly.
when i asked if they had a new room i was told no they were full and they handed me a spray.
(this shows me they know about the smell in the room or rooms as that had this at hand.( did not have to look for it)
The shower work which was a good thing but if you had it on too long the floor in the bathroom started to also become wet.
The room was like an oven and we tried to open the window to try and sleep but the noise outside made it so you could not see and if you shut the window the temp just when up.
We had planned to have a early start to get to the ferrry, rond 5 am away but we packed up and hit the road at 3 am just because of the room.
I would give this hotel a miss.

Adrian Tate's review
I had been camping which was awful. Managed to get a room at the last minute which was a real relief. Staff were very kind to me ,and the room was comfortable with everything a motorcyclist could ask for. Will use Hotel Heco when I return 👍
It was a great place to stay. I chose it based on location and it was great. It was close to everything. Ot was oppose to the railway station which was important to me.
Such a terrible place to be in it’s not a hotel not even for animal very bad service very bad place.
We didn’t sleep in as it’s not a place can human being stay in.
Reception was very rude just something wrong
the photos displaying about the hotels are fake There is no beach or anything else such a terrible place. I don’t know where they get their photos.
I wish there had been a bike shed. Although fairly small there was room for them. I wish we had been on the ground floor. A great value for a great location - close to city gardens and the spectacular Hotel de Ville.
You see a hotel picture of a church on the booking page, the hotel is not the church but nearby a old terrible building. Verry noisy , the bathroom is old and a lot of things are broken. The info from ebookers.ie is not correct.

The receptionist was friendly upon arrival. Secure parking for only €2 per day. €0.70 per person city tax. The room was average. Ideally could do with abit of modernisation. The door handle in the bathroom was broken. The toilet seat was chipped all over the lid. The bathroom basin tap didn't get warm but the shower was okay.The window allowed alot of wind noise in through the night which made sleeping difficult. Only 1 pillow per person which wasn't ideal. Bedding had cigarette burns in several areas. Walls seemed to have some yellow staining. Signs of damp around the bathroom. Communal areas were very run down / in need of repair. To sum up , a cheap and cheerful stay. You get what you pay for. Would use again but don't expect 5* when paying 2* prices.

Worst hotel - used towels and old litter in the room. Heater not working. They seemed to make a real effort to make it awful.
Refund please
Hotel is very “tired”, it needs a thorough overhaul. Also room was small. Only 2 shower towels for 3 people and no bathmat. Shower holder was broken so we had to hold shower head while washing.
There were cockroaches in our room,showed the man at reception a video of this and he just shrugged it off. Also the power plugs did not work in the room. This place was a joke
Shabby, run down hotel that looked more like a secure psychiatric unit. Black mould in the shower, broken fittings, what looked like cigarette burns on the bed-spread.
