The hotel was centrally located in the bustling town of Ennis, making it convenient for exploring the city, shopping, and dining. However, the rooms were outdated and noisy due to their proximity to a busy street, which made it challenging to get a good night's sleep.

Despite the drawbacks, the hotel's prime location near the city center was a major plus.

The hotel is located perfectly within walking distance of all that Ennis has to offer. The spacious and comfy rooms come with clean bathrooms, but they lack soundproofing. The service was initially welcoming and helpful but became less accommodating when confronted with issues. The location excels for exploring the local area, although the lack of a parking voucher system was inconvenient. The dining options were disappointing on some days. Overall, the hotel provides a mixed experience but offers good value for money.
