cracking stuff amazing location long wait stiff tap
The breakfast served was cracking stuff. The location is amazing, high up. You can look down on the city in one direction. I could see the lough in the other direction.
I found that there wasn't always someone at reception. I had to wait for a long time to get assistance. The shower had little pressure. The temperature regulator tap was very stiff to adjust.
