a tender getaway

warm welcomecoffee makergreen glensroom steps
we received a warm welcome and found our room clean. the coffee maker with its pods, sugar, and creamer was a good touch and there were also assorted teas. the nearby monastic city of glendalough offered a amazing hike among green glens and hillsides. we found homemade scones with jam and cream at a nearby coffee shop.
i noticed a few steps leading to the room, which presented a small challenge.

the staff were so helpful and friendly! they had complimentary coffee and tea available. the location was excellent, right next to a supermarket and close to a restaurant for meals. i loved the space to relax outside my room, it was a real plus!

While there isn't breakfast provided directly at the hotel, a restaurant is located next door. a coffee shop with homemade baked goods sits nearby. This arrangement works if you like local spots!

The room was clean, i must say, the bed was comfortable. also, the location proved convenient. A nearby restaurant was a plus. it had easy parking too, a definite benefit when traveling.
The steps leading to the room were somewhat challenging, i noticed. the lack of breakfast included in the price was a letdown. I felt it should have been clearer beforehand.
