i found the location amazing near the harbour, the ocean and a cliff walk. staff was helpful and very friendly. i enjoyed delicious seafood at the restaurant a lot.

i noticed the emergency exit light in the room. breakfast hours were restricted a bit, and they didn't allow me to have it before an early transport day. the room lacked soundproofing on the street and corridor.

clean hotelhelpful stafftrain stationbasic buffetlimited pastriesgranola absence

The hotel provides good advice about the local DART train to Dublin. This train station is a ten-minute walk down the road. The staff is helpful regarding buses in Dublin. The hotel and restaurant looked very clean and well-kept.

The breakfast buffet was basic. I did not see any fresh pastries available. I also noted an absence of granola, only packets of cornflakes and weetabix were present. I would have liked more variety.
