Good but misleading info

Very pleasant stay. Only disappointment was due to misinformation on the part of hotels.com. Room was listed as a king but was actually just a five foot bed which would make it a US queen but an Irish double king. This was misleading as we booked on US site. Also the free overflow car park is no longer available and we had to use a car park which charged by the day.

Room with a view

The view from our room was beautiful. It overlooked a river that had swans. Easy walk to a nearby restaurant. I just didn’t like the parking situation. Hotel had a few spaces you could use and it looked like the majority of hotel guests had to park in the street.
