Gut gelegen, uncoole Receptionistas

Grosse Zimmer, aber leider nicht sehr auf Kundenservice orientiertes Team an der Reception. Lässt sich jedoch umgehen in den gemütlichen Pubs, Coffe shops und Restaurants in unmittelbarer Nähe!

No es un hotel nuevo, pero si

No es un hotel nuevo, pero si acogedor. Las habitaciones son muy amplias con camas grandes. Calefaccion y aire acondicionado no funcionan y con ruido que tuvimos que apagar. Baño no de 4 estrellas. Buen sitio centrico detrás de Trinity College y cerca estación de tren. Tiene dos hoteles Ocallagan al lado aparentemente peores. La atencion muy buena y la limpieza regular. Se olía a tabaco en la habitacion.
