“Good location easy walk along river to Irish Pub”

Even did the laundry—washed, dried, and returned it to the room. Great service!

“Great stay, we will be back.”

Lovely people at reception. Everything was super clean. Good location on the River and plenty of parking.

“Don’t stay there unless you like 70’ retro.”

Location. Dark and dingy (the 70s has a lot to answer for). Useless shower. Took me ages to work the one little heater. Smallest TV I have seen, no charging power plugs near the bed. It wasn’t even cheap.

“Friendly staff, but very uncomfortable bed”

Easy to find, quite from the street. Most uncomfortable bed ever, woke up with the worst back pain ever and could hardly move; tried a hot shower but the pressure was the worst.

I was shocked to discover live cockroaches in the beds and even in the bathroom – a truly unpleasant experience.
