This is a clean and well run property. The room was adequately sized, and the be was comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. The Circle K convenience store and Subway inside it are good options within easy walking distance for sundries and as an alternative to the restaurant. I would have like for them to have an exercise room.

Stayed at hotel as a good location for Funtasia waterpark in Drogheda. Only 12 mins away so great spot. The hotel is off the motorway with nothing else close by. If you want an evening meal you will either eating the hotel or drive into town. Nothing walkable. We had three people with special dietary needs and all we're pleased with their evening meal which is a rare occurrence!! Hotel is clean, modern and staff helpful. My only concern was the air conditioning. Our room was very hot as the AC didn't work. We were on the motorway side of the hotel so lots of car noise with the windows ajar. Top tip....make sure you get a room facing the car park rather than the motorway and check your AC works as soon as you check in.

We were looking for a 24-hour desk because we weren’t sure when we would arrive. Check in was quick and easy. We were somewhat mystified by the gate when we drove in. You need a code to leave the lot and the code is posted everywhere. The room was huge with a large walk through closet and plenty of seating. Everything we needed was there, hot water kettle, coffee annd tea, and a safe. The kettle didn’t work but this was fixed after I told the desk. Bottled water was provided. There was a gas station nearby and the hotel was near the highway but very quiet. Breakfast had a lot of choices, although with a gluten free, dairy free diet, choices were limited. There was gf bread and a separate toaster but on the second day, there was no bread at all. I would recommend this hotel; we didn’t use the facilities but this is closer to what we’re used to.

Great Value for a Stay in Dublin

I have stayed here a few times because it is very affordable and the rooms are very nice. It is a bit north of Dublin but you can use a rental car or bus into the city center. It is a great place to go to DUB airport.
