I’ve found the service to be cold, the furniture uncomfortable, and the room to be too hot. I wouldn’t go back to this hotel brand or location again. That being said, I can see why some folks would find it delightful, the room was quite large and the pool was a nice treat. All in all not a winner for me.

Highlights were the helpful, courteous staff ( especially Aoife and Maria) and the dining opportunities. You could tell the pride the restaurant took their food quality, options, and serving attention to customers. The room was clean, the bed was a bit soft for my taste. We chose to use the stairs to exit the hotel because it was a bit twisty from the lobby to our floor. Don’t get a room over the alley because it can get loud at bar time. The location was convenient to public transportation. You will need to use it to get to the tourist sites and more restaurant options. There were pubs a half block away.
