The Address Sligo

The Address Sligo

10/10 Excellent
"The Address was a very nice hotel centrally located. We ate at a few different establishments in town but to be honest the food at the Address’s restaurant North, was just as good if not better than anything else we had. My only complaint was that they leave you 3 pods of coffee for the coffee machine for a 2 night stay with 2 people. We went to the front desk and asked if we could have a few more, they said they would deliver them to our room. They did not."
