    great location
    hearty breakfast
    cramped bathroom

    The location offers quick access to restaurants and pubs, with popular spots like the Crane Bar just around the corner. The breakfast, especially the full Irish fry-up, is freshly cooked and hearty enough to get you going for the day.

    The bedroom had a small bathroom that felt cramped for two guests, with a tiny basin and limited hanging space. Additionally, the noise insulation was lacking, allowing sounds from neighboring rooms to disturb sleep, often requiring earplugs.

    Breaking it down, plain and simple

    A cozy hideaway with a fantastic location, just a 10-minute stroll to the city center. Warm and friendly hospitality made my stay unforgettable. Breakfast was delightful, featuring a full Irish fry-up tailored to my dietary needs. I appreciated the comfortable room, creating a home-like atmosphere during my time away!

    delicious breakfast
    cute host

    I stayed for 2 nights in a Double Room and felt as though I was visiting an old friend. The breakfast was cooked to order, with a full Irish that really filled me up. The atmosphere was so inviting, and Ann always greeted us with a smile and warmth. I loved the community feel here!

    top-notch breakfast
    cramped bathroom

    The location is perfect for hitting up local spots like the Crane Bar and shopping. Ann's breakfast was top-notch, especially the full Irish fry-up! The atmosphere was friendly, and we felt well taken care of during our stay. Highly recommend it!

    The bathroom in our room was a bit cramped compared to expectations, which made it a little challenging to navigate.

    clean room
    small bathroom
    noisy environment
    limited storage

    The friendly hostess made our mornings delightful with an amazing breakfast featuring packaged options. Cleanliness stood out, and the room was located conveniently near the city center, making it easy to access shops and eateries. However, the bathroom was extremely small, and the under-roof room had limited storage and a noisy tap from another area. Additionally, the window blinds didn’t provide enough darkness, making it difficult to sleep in.

    warm welcome
    impressive breakfast
    cramped bathroom

    great hospitality but bathroom space could improve

    The warm welcome from the host made my stay feel personal and memorable. The excellent location allowed for easy access to both local restaurants and the city center. The breakfast was particularly impressive, with a variety of options that catered to my tastes. Additionally, staying in a cozy atmosphere added to the charm of the experience.

    The bathroom in my room felt a bit cramped.
