Noisy, frustrating stay - worst ever
While the check-in was pleasant and all staff were professional I have to say the noise in the room was absolutely awful. I was given the room as an ‘upgrade’ at check-in but I suspect the room is a known problem room. There was a constant thumping from when I checked in at 6pm to when I checked out at noon - it was relentless apart from maybe three hours in the dead of night. I was extremely tired on arrival and so went to bed early and having done so did not really want to complain and have to repack and change room. I was also certain that any adjacent rooms would no doubt have heard the same constant thudding with it being so loud. I don’t know if the room sat under a gym or a function room or something but it was the worst I’ve ever experienced. I mentioned it at checkout and the lady said she’d look onto it straight away - I only hope that helps the next guest. Staff and breakfast were fine as I say, I didn’t use any other facilities but the minimum I expect for €180 per night is a good peaceful nights sleep and to not have to change room. Not happy.

good sized room, although they gave us a room for special needs, not sure why, didn't ask, which made using the sink awkward as it was rather low. But it was well furnished with a big TV and coffee making equipment

Overnight stay
We had the loveliest overnight stay in a really large comfortable ground floor room. We had a beautiful meal in the bar in the evening & an equally delicious breakfast in the morning. It was so quiet & peacefully the whole time we were there. We never heard another guest. The staff were very friendly & welcoming. We would definitely stay again the next time we are passing.
