Perfect accommodation for a few nights stay. Family owned and run. Check in was easy and when we enquired if room had a walk in shower we were changed to a room that did. Very friendly, attentive staff. Clean towels each day. Great bar meals, smaller portions available. Wonderful Guinness😍 highly recommend.

Some rooms noisy Saturday night

The check in was very friendly and efficient. The lady made me feel welcome and was very helpful. The room was clean but a little dated with a water stain on ceiling. Bed was big and comfortable. The main issue was the bar is open until 2am playing very loud music. The vibrations were felt in bathroom and even with earplugs you could hear the music very loudly in the room. Our room was right above the bar so other rooms would not experience this same issue. After 2am everyone cleared out quickly and it was quiet.

The issue i had when i arrived was there is no parking had to drive around to find a space luckily for us we only had hand luggage. Food was excellent and to a high standard. But once we decided to retire to our room the noise was unbelievable i thought i had arrived at ministry of sound in ibiza until 2am then it went quiet so don't expect to sleep Friday and Saturday until 3am i know it does mention this on there web page but it was that bad the lights were shaking in the room absolutely shocking
