Stay at river island
When we got back to our room in the evening there was a motor bike convention on with extremely loud music which was pounding into our room. When i went to complainThe manager moved us up a floor and provided earplugs and apologised. Did did actually end up getting a good night sleep and the breakfast was excellent. The staff were also very friendly.

Short break in Castleisland
Unfortunately we had to ask for a change of room when we first arrived as there was a loud humming noise which unfortunately would have kept us awake during the night, the staff member however was very accommodating and changed us to another room immediately. The breakfast is adequate however it does not offer a lot of choice for anyone who does not like fried food. In regards the house keeping service I would have to say it was poor, the bed covers were just pulled over the pillows and the bed was not properly made. For anyone who needs the WiFi for work it was not working while we were there, apparently it had been faulty for over a week. The hotel itself is very convenient as a base to explore the surrounding area and the staff are very pleasant.
