Had a room on the street intersection....very noisy! Air conditioning did not work so had to keep windows open which added to the noise. Was given a handicap room and was not asked id it was ok. Had to sit on the floor to dry hair in a mirror as that was the only plug and dryer cord was very short. Other guests that we were traveling with had requested a fan annd over an hour later had still not been delivered and the front desk did not answer the phone. When we went down clerk was just sitting there. Just was not a good experience. Breakfast was good.

Good location close to the amenities Friendly staff and well laid out bar and breakfast area, very good breakfast menu On the downside the room was located close to the heating/ventilation system which was very noisy, the en-suite shower cubicle is in need of grouting replaced as black spots very prevalent Otherwise very pleased with our stay and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone visiting Derry

Great hotel

Very glad I chose to stay here. The staff were particularly helpful and friendly. Clean and comfortable with great breakfast. Central location is ideal but could be a bit noisy especially from traffic etc but that’s what earplugs are for!

The remote for the television was missing. When reported, the staff were apologetic and tried to source another. Unfortunately it wasn't as they had no spares. When checking out our parking was validated, however when leaving the car park, the validation discount wasn't accepted and we had to pay a hefty parking bill.
