Good hotel but some issues. We arrived at 1pm after travelling all night. We were told our room was not ready and that check in isn't guaranteed until 4. We weren't told how long it would be or anything. We wandered around d for over two hours, and tried again at 3:10pm. Again we were told the room wasn't ready and check in is not guaranteed until 4. Yes, I get that, but is it 5 minutes, 10 minutes or are you just refusing us until 4pm? They finally relented and a clean room was magically available. Other than that, the hotel was nice, had a fridge which is a first for Ireland and in a great location.

Room wasn’t ready until 4pm. Many people sleeping in the lobby. It was disappointing after travelling overnight. If checkin is 3pm the room should be ready or the hotel is mismanaged. Will not return.
