Excellent.

20 min drive from Dublin Airport. Excellent location. Hyper comfortable bed, spacious bright room with two windows in different directions. Plenty of coffee, tea and shower gels etc. Strong WiFi and free! Free underground parking! All good! No complaints.

Big clean rooms, center of the village and a short walk to the beach. Train to the city takes 45 minutes - and only a 20 minute drive to the airport. Value for money - cheaper than Dublin city centre!
