One review said: “First class personal, one problem; “lack of resources.”

Another said: “I have been in quite few B&B in Northern Ireland but this place is quite different. From the start the room was not too comfortable and could not share it with friends (some internal rules), did not enjoy the view from the window and I felt locked down.. Once my place was booked I could not leave the place as they want you to enjoy every minute. I quite enjoyed the location as it’s right in the middle of the town centre - very convenient for people that need the bus to get back home. The staff itself nice and warm people, always asked if I need anything and even accompanied me on the way to toilet. They are serving better food than any takeaway in Lurgan.

A third review said: “It was okay, they arrested my friend, but he had it coming. not bad, would recommend.”
