“This property certainly strikes a chord with vacationers and friend groups seeking lively communal spaces. The live music at Cruises Pub is a definite draw, while the on-site restaurant adds a touch of modern dining to the traditional Irish setting.

Solid Stay Close to Everything

easy accessmusic venuesshort walktrain station
The hotel's location provided easy access to music venues and the bus stops. I found a train station within a short walk, about fifteen minutes. I had breakfast at the coffee shop located downstairs and it was part of the same company. It tasted delicious
I noticed the wall in my room had a visible stain. It looked like something had been spilled and not properly cleaned.
Dining

The coffee shop downstairs is part of the same company and offers convenient options. Breakfast service begins at 8 AM, accommodating most schedules and there is an early-opening cafe down the street for those needing an earlier start.
