Had a great time visiting Limerick for the very first time. The staff were super helpful and I'm impressed by the room service where leaving the room later in the day still was serviced and bedsheets made, towels refreshed when I came in the evening.
5/5 from my end

Extras help
While the hotel could use some renovations and modernization, the staff were lovely and little touches in the room, like mini boxed chocolates, make up for what is lacking. There are two restaurant options attached to the hotel, one of which provides a great breakfast spread as part of your stay. A good, humble find of a hotel.

The hotel was excellent for Disability awareness. The breakfasts were delicious including the omelettes. The staff from receptionist to breakfast servers were kind and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble or time consuming. I would happily stay there again after spending 6 consecutive nights there. My only concern was lack of air conditioning but we were having a heat wave. 😊. Thank you all 😊🌹👏

The rooms are pretty good, a bit of a musty smell on the ones on the 3rd floor. The gym could use a major upgrade, pretty poor.
The food is very good, good options, and fairly reasonable.
