Review summary
Summarized by AI from 1,000+ reviews
A historic city-center retreat with classic charm.
This property offers sightseers a characterful stay within a storied, historic building. An ideal central location places guests steps from major landmarks, while the charming outdoor courtyard provides a peaceful escape from the urban bustle. Guests frequently praise the exceptionally comfortable beds, and those seeking a relaxed evening should head to the bar for a pint of high-quality Guinness. While the property retains an authentic, cozy atmosphere, the aging interiors and inconsistent service standards mean the experience can vary significantly depending on the day.
Some guests mentioned: noise from events, unreliable Wi-Fi, temperature control issues.
