to get started.

Simple but nice hotel near the city center. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Irish breakfast is also pretty simple, I prefer continental one though. Gassworks bar is next door so you can enjoy good pint of beer after hard workday :)

Alexx_mipt, Latvia

Large, modern rooms with all amenities, ample USB charging ports, speedy wi-fi, excellent in-house bar and restaurant, great location. Very clean rooms. Excellent included breakfast. The staff will take care of your every need, like getting you a bag breakfast to takeaway if you have an early flight.

When I booked it, I was told it would cost £110. By the time we got there it has gone up to £115 with exchange rates. I think the original price should have been protected. I was also unimpressed that I had to then pay for the car parking - this should have been included in the hotel price.
