No air conditioning so left window open. So noisy I had to close window and cook so didn’t sleep. Also so noisy in the hallways until nearly 3 am had to turn bathroom fan on to try to drown out the noise. Tough last night in Ireland.

A little run down on the outside, but an unbeatable location right across from the beach. The room was in Italy very clean, though the carpet could be replaced (bumpy in spots). Staff seemed friendly and helpful but the during housekeeping service they only made the bed, garbage and folded towels- nothing was wiped down or cleaned. Overall, I’d definitely choose it again because the bus to Dublin was a 1 minute walk and the view is amazing.

Staff were very friendly and polite. Beautiful view of the ocean. The rooms were typical size, however are in need of updating. Carpet worn in the hallways and in the rooms, needs new paint, basically a cosmetic uplift.

Great location nice size room. Bathroom a little outdated and cleanliness overall was lacking a bit. Floors did not look like they had been vacuumed properly. View from room was amazing and best breakfast I have had in a long time for a very reasonable cost

This is the dream hotel. Like when you’re a kid and you stay in a hotel and the nostalgia tinged memories are of a glamorous seaside location - this is it. Absolutely gorgeous, amazing comfortable stay. UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING bathtub. This hotel is out of a dream. Perfect location for swimming in the sea across the road, then a beautiful walk down the coastal path to Malahide for tea. This hotel smells lovely, so clean, lovely comfy beds, big room. There’s no fridge if that’s something you need but many places don’t. Great location for getting to the port the next day. Just that perfect stay for our last night in Ireland, couldn’t be more grateful. My only complaint is not staying longer!! Hope to be back!

Location, location, location is about all this hotel has going for it! Directly across from beach and near other attractions, but very dated (ripped and torn carpet), loose bathrrom tiles, and aging facade.
