Room very spacious, clean and comfortable. The lift is very slow when you call for it. Full Irish breakfast was excellent, great location. No car park linked to the hotel, but there is a municipal one literally across the road but no no concessions for hotel stay.

Room was clean and spacious and quiet in spite of overlooking a busy road. Check in staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, some minor issues need attention , no cups for tea and coffee. Bar food was ok, wait staff seemed under pressure. Overall a really good stay,would recommend and would return.
