Adequate Hotel Experience
live musicfriendly staffgreat breakfastthin wallsinconsistent temperature
The hotel provided a really good Irish breakfast. I also found the staff to be friendly . I also appreciated the live music I heard in the restaurant. The hotel's location made it easy to walk to the city center
The walls in my room were quite thin. I could clearly hear voices from the room next to mine and had to use music to block out the noise. The shower water temperature was inconsistent too. I experienced lukewarm water during one morning.
