Loved our stay here! Staff were nice, friendly and helpful! Breakfast was great! If there’s one gripe, I have to say was that the shower head in our bathroom was leaking hard so we needed to tone down the water so as not to have the water get out of the shower enclosure, otherwise the bathroom would have been flooded . But other than that, our stay was terrific and I highly recommend this B&B.

The view alone was worth the price (which was also good). All the staff were very friendly too. The breakfast provided was great. It's in a quiet area but also not a bad walk to get to whatever else you need.

One night stay for GAA match

Very nice place to stay, on Arrival room was quiet cold and had to turn on rad. Forgot to turn off and room went to other extreme at nighttime. There seemed to be only one setting. We had selected this place partially because of breakfast included but in the morning we discovered that it was on continental breakfast and hot breakfast was an extra charge. Now the hot breakfast was good quality and value. Other than these small things it was very cosy, friendly spot to stay and great location for matches in either Celtic park or the brandywell.

Good, but noisy building

The stay was nice, people were helpful, but the noise level in the hotel is high. The walls are incredibly thin and the front door is used constantly by staff starting at 6:45 in the morning and slams shut every time. It was incredibly loud and disruptive.
