Staff were great. Breakfast was great. Location very easy walk to everything. It was a little expensive, but probably in line with the area. Room was on the small side. Only complaint: a lot of street noise at night (sirens, yelling). Not sure if other rooms could have been better in this regard

We spent two weeks visiting the UK and Ireland and this was far and away our favorite hotel. Fantastic location within walking distance to most of the area attractions. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was spotless and well laid out.
