peeling paint live music
the room was clean and had all amenities i could ask for.
the noise from the pub was really bad the first night i stayed. live music went on until late and made it hard for me to sleep even with earplugs. the room also had peeling paint and felt quite worn down, it really made the experience less enjoyable

friendly staff perfect rooms easy transport small bed constant traffic local channels
The staff really welcomed me, so nice. The double rooms were perfect and super well priced, I really liked this. Transport to the city center was easy, only 20 minutes! I had the best pint of Guinness, it was way better than Temple Bars.
My room was really small with a tiny double bed. The window faced a main street with constant traffic, I couldn't sleep. The TV only had local channels, what a bummer!
