We had a good stay. Two issues the swimming was freezing given the weather at this time of year in the west of Ireland it would be good to have the pool warmer as the kids wanted out after 20-30mins due to it being to cold. The other the staff in hotel were lovely and very accommodating however they were very young and food service was at times slow. For breakfast in the morning it took a long time to refill the food items.

The hotel was very impressive upon entry. The person who welcomed us at the front desk was friendly and professional. The room was very spacious and well equipped. We found the TV was very small and the water pressure in the shower could be a bit better. It was convenient to have a restaurant within the hotel. However, based on the rest of the hotel, we had higher expectations. The quality of the food could be improved.

Clean and comfortable
All the staff were great, especially in the restaurant and bar - the young lady supervisor in the blue with dark hair is a huge asset to your team. The food was delicious and service timely. Room a little tired, bathroom disappointing with shower over bath and shower curtain. I'm no longer fond of trying to manoeuvre under a shower head positioned close to the wall, with the curtain clinging to my legs!
