Reviews
The family room was perfect for our stay. The beds are very comfortable. The hotel is a couple of doors from the Irish bar and very close to a vibrant area for nightlife so it can be a little noisy at night. The room was next to the cellars of the bars so it was noisy in the morning too. Take ear plugs as others have recommended.
The only thing I would change would be the smell of the room. It smelt of old cigarettes which we really didn't like. I reported it to the receptionist but I guess it is a smell that would be hard to remove.
The room had a great view of the canal staff were attentive and friendly!
Staff was friendly and helpful!
