The hotel is good, the service is great, the cleaning is great, the staffs are very friendly, I like them very much, but there is a problem. The restaurant serves very few meals and in most cases it is not tasty, and this prompts the guests to make extra food in the rooms and this is very bad. Restaurant review

I booked this hotel for a Friday to Sunday stay for my Girlfriend's birthday. On arrival, everything was pleasant and we got checked in ok. When we got to the room everything was a little dated. Mahogany furniture, badly discoloured sockets and switches. The room was different to what I booked as we wanted a sofa, but there was a table with two chairs in the room, and it definitely wasn't weather for sitting with the balcony doors open.
I let it be anyway, as it wasn't important. I noticed we were in an adjoining room with a door, a door with the tiniest bolt you'd ever see. Like literally if anyone wanted to get into the room from the adjacent room, they wouldn't have much trouble. So, I put our belongings against it with the table and let that be too. There was guests in the adjacent room on the Saturday and we could hear word for word what they were saying.
The balcony door windows hadn't been washed in ever. The balcony hadn't been painted in ever either, it was really starting to let the room down badly. During the night there was a bit of a storm, which we heard through the very draughty doors. When I say draughty, I mean the curtains moved with the wind and the room was becoming very cold. The bathroom was badly aged, everything was off white and most of the metal work tarnished.
The bath panel had a large gap down the end of it where it met the wall, the soil pipe casing at the back of the toilet was the same, and to top it all off, the toilet was leaking, which was causing the tiles around the toilet floor to go boast and lift up. God knows how many specimens of urine and excrement there was soaking up through the tile grout.
This was all on the Friday, which prompted me to go online a price how much the Premier Inn up the road was. The Marine Court cost me 320 for a balcony room, and a room in the Premier Inn for the exact same days was 220. It cost me a 100 more for what I can describe as Faulty Towers. Yes, I did have a balcony, yes, I did have a view of the marina, but by God it wasn't worth it one bit.
It was the sort of room I'd normally pay 120 for two nights in Donegal or Galway from Groupon. If I'd have paid 120 for the both nights, I'd have had nothing to complain about, but paying 100 more than the Premier Inn for something that kept us awake and cold didn't reflect the price at all. The Marine Court wouldn't touch the Premier Inn for comfort, cleanliness and ambiance, and they got 50 a night more for it. I'll not be back near it, especially at the price I paid. Maybe 60-80 a night, but absolutely not worth the 160 I paid. It's left a sour taste in my mouth.

Dull, drab, dreary and dirty. Advertised swimming pool but when we got there, oh sorry, the pool has closed down. Room had one hand towel, phone did not work, room service ie chambermaid, was none existent. In dire need of a total revamp. Decor, carpets were awful. At breakfast I told the waitress that the bread for toasting was stale, she emptied another loaf on top, which was also stale!

Booked an executive deluxe room with French doors as our night away after getting married. We got a basic double room! bed and table! when we approached staff they told us they were all booked up we still had to pay the 150. Dated room and breakfast as poor. Broken lamps in room poor WiFi couldn't connect to tv. Really disappointed. Last time we'd stay and would not recommend!
