Lovely staff right in the heart of town, surrounded by cafes and pubs. It was a last-minute stay, and just what I needed.

This hotel was clean with very helpful staff, but it badly needs a face-lift. The hotel looks old and dated.

No hot water. Difficult circumstances for travellers just coming in from overseas.
Room was very basic, no air con so it was really stuffy and warm at night.
Breakfast staff were so friendly and lovely and chatty.
Had a brief encounter with the owner, who was really cranky and rude, we then overheard him being really rude with the reception staff - for this reason I wouldn’t stay again. He made us feel really unwelcome.

Not the best hotel I have stayed in
Not the best nor worst hotel i have stayed in, The room was pretty basic and bed ok. I have stayed in other Lawlors hotels which I found to be better than this. The food in the bar was reasonably priced but not the best quality and i left some of it. it didnt feel welcoming for a business traveller with loud locals shouting and swearing all over the place. I wouldnt stay again I am afraid
Cleanliness left a lot to be desired.
Reception seats filthy and overall hotel is shabby
For starters needs thorough cleaning from front of house to bedrooms
Over all the experience was great . Bill in particular was so welcoming and made our stay so welcoming . And the staff in the bar were also very friendly . Bedroom was perfect for our requirments . However there was one staff member who was bordering on rude . Announcing who would pay for a round of drinks in front of us all . And came back to tell us the price of the drink when I ad just paid the bill was always going to pay for the extra drink . Other than his unprofessionalism it was lovely.

It was really lovely... really quiet also. Bed was v comfortable. Tea a d coffee is not provided in any bedroom because of. Covid 19. A tablet is provided instead of a phone. Breakfast was b good
Large que for breakfast using same cloth to clean all tables moving milk jugs between tables without cleaning staff under pressure obviously managment errors in staffing and training compared to other hotels I have stayed at
Poor service at breakfast. Tables Not cleared in a timely fashion. No clear Breakfast room manager. Order taken wrong and got hot food brought out with cereal. Asked to keep it until had cereal eaten and was ‘Tsked’ at. Complained to front desk - all I got was a sorry. It appeared as if there were new hires being trained in but they were not interested or up to the task.
Room was very basic but got what was paid for.
Not good value. Grubby and unclean.Will not return
Carpets in hallways were dirty. Unused delph or cutlery was not removed from tables after meals. Tables not cleaned properly. No sign of anti bacterial spray used in restaurant, especially in these covid times is worrying. 45 minute queue for breakfast even after booking the time slot in advance.
Bedroom overlooking a dirty rooftop. Didnt feel it was value for money. Hotel felt dated and grubby
Good location
