I NEVER leave reviews. I felt the need at this hotel. We were on a 16 day trip, which we stayed in a different hotel every night from Spain and most of Ireland. This was the most expensive hotel we stayed in, annd we stayed in several really nice places. I give it the rating 3 due to comfortable for air conditioner, style of room, mattress decent. The hotel had air conditioning which was a wonderful welcome. The entry and restaurant looked nice. We went to our room and it smelled like the sewer. If we left the bathroom door closed it helped. Prompt service when we called for help on the Nespresso machine. The bathroom had blood splattered across the ceiling. Floor had dirt and looked like it hadn’t been vacuumed. Limited nearby parking.
