                “McGettigans Hotel (formerly Gallaghers Hotel) - Reasonable Cost, Good Location”

                Perhaps because we were traveling during the shoulder season, McGettigans had a very attractive rate, which is what caused us to book a room there. No complaints due to the low rate. Good sized room, full en suite bathroom with bathtub. Hotel us dated, carpets are old/worn as are the furnishings, but it was fine for a night. Convenient location, much within walking distance, to include some great breakfast spots if your booking doesn't include the hotel's breakfast. The covered parking is a big plus. The only two demerits? (1) Fortunately, we didn't need it, but the room s air conditioning/heating unit didn't work, just emitted a LOUD hum, like a stalled motor. (2), We didn't even bother to ask "why, but the bathwater was the color of green tea, no odor per se, but a bit off-putting. No bottled water provided.

                Title says it all; rude reception on arrival and at breakfast I was greeted by: ' you need pay, not free' which was embarrassing as we had to stand around while they checked our order. While it was been settled the eastern European staff continued to stare head to toe at my Asian wife... We ate quickly.
