I visited paddy sheehan's, a bar within the hotel. music started at 3:30 pm. the atmosphere felt warm. downstairs washrooms were clean. I appreciated that. the bands played great live irish music. the bathrooms were super clean, which i liked.

My room was very spacious. The beds were also very comfy! The location was awesome.

The room was up two flights of stairs. There was no lift. I struggle walking, so this was a challenge. I found the TV channel selection limited. Netflix and Prime Video also did not work.
