Great place to stay while in Dublin and exploring close by! Clean rooms, friendly staff, great spa! We used a taxi/uber to go to and from Dublin centre and left the car at the hotel. It was super reasonable and much easier than navigating a parking spot. Great hotel with big ambiance and character.
