Property well located. 2nd time staying at Dooleys. First room wasn’t great..shower tray overflowed and room was quite small compared to 1st stay. They changed our room and got a great room. No complaints after this about the room. Service and politeness of staff very good. Only gripe with hotel was that we purchased bottled water to take to bed for two nights running only to find that the water BB date was 24th Aug 2024…and date of visit was nov 2024. It won’t make us ill as only two/three months old but makes you wonder what else could be out of date….?
