If you can afford to stay somewhere else in Waterford - do so - this hotel, in it's current format, is a joke and a shocking waste of money.
Stayed for 2 nights - never again.
The hotel is "grubby / dirty" - I don't think it has had a proper clean in years.
Our room was a joke - it was tiny. The window barely opened so there was no fresh air in the room. It was far too warm - we had to have the fan on the whole time.
The safe didn't work. The TV didn't work. The maintenance man, who was very friendly, did try to fix it - but it still didn't work.
The bathroom was tiny - no storage. A large quantity of black mold around the bath and shower door...!!!
Breakfast was very poor - the quality of the ingredients used was extremely cheap. The "hot" food was barely lukewarm. Their menu mentioned there were pastries - I did not see any, on either of the 2 mornings.
They charged us E162 a night - which would have been fine if it was worth it - but it certainly was not. I have stayed in other 3 stars hotels that were far, far nicer and charged less money.
What a joke of a hotel - and as they "demand" payment ON ARRIVAL - there is zero comeback from the customer.
