    The bathroom light in the room was operated by sensor and the light would keep going off.

    Great location for Garvagh Forest which was the reason we visited. Staff were very friendly, made us welcome and assisted us with safe and secure storage for our bikes.

    Only criticism would be the size of the en-suite which was quite small.

    Dinner and breakfast were all excellent. Room was really big for a family of 4 and all staff were so friendly and helpful.

    The bathroom in the room was very small , and the shower base filled up ( not draining ) and was difficult to use (the temp adjustment didn't seem to work properly)so was to hot .But over all a perfect location and stay for what we needed.

    The place was very clean and staff very friendly

    The room was a little noisy at night with cars driving by. Bring some ear plugs and you'll be fine.

    Maybe breakfast start earlier for those wanting to head to causeway or places like that earlier in the day.

    Food was delicious, clean rooms and liked how there was no curfew for arriving back at hotel/leaving it.

    It's located on the main street which is something I particularly try to avoid ... but was not so noisy.

    Pillows too hard. Shower was very difficult to get in and out of. Very small en-suite in general. Could overhear conversations on reception whilst having breakfast about not having paid when we had paid the day before. Was embarrassed as no one came to check with us.

    Good food in the bar

    TV remote didn't work (which I passed on to the staff), but I managed to use the TV using the built-in buttons. On the second day there was a (live) earwig under one of my pillows. I can see how it could have got there through an open window I suppose. Thankfully I'm not squeamish! Would be nice to have more than one available plug in the room but I was happy enough.

    Had a lovely breakfast and felt warmly welcomed by all of the staff. Room was cosy/small but modern and updated, with a comfy bed and the bare necessities. Great access within the town to shops. Was out late one night but could safely access the rooms via hotel key.

    There was a fault with the hot water in our room which was remedied in the morning.

    The breakfast was really good. The 'fry' was modern and non greasy. The evening meal was more traditional, the dessert was very good. The forest walk was enchanting with an abundence of wild flowers abd it was well signposted,
