Designated smoking area needed - Rating 4/5
Clean, tidy, comfy. Mad loud music Saturday night until 11, but my kids are older so not so bad. The only thing I found negativewas the cigarette and weed smoke coming up into my window at all hours.

I felt safe- Rating 4/5
I loved it, a clean property near to the beautiful beach. I spent 14 days, and I was very comfortable. I felt safe; as I was alone in a new country or a new place and continuously for 14 days, so it was tough to find a place where I can feel homely and safe during Covid19 pandemic. Luckily I choose the GLendevon Hotel where I was happy.And MANAGER Cosmo was a very helping guy ready to answer or help any time and was following all Covid guidelines which made my stay stress free, from the corona.I enjoyed the 14days of stay there .Will visit again surely.

Enjoyable - Rating 5/5
Cheap and cheerful. The hotel is situated within walking distance of the beach, so it was ideal for me as I love a morning walk along the front. The staff are professional, helpful & Honest putting aside a bank card that a member of our group lost when booking in. My Thanks to Mario and Adi, I hope to see you again soon!!

We stayed at the Glendevon for 3 nights.The room was clean but some small details missed - bin not emptied, no tea making facilities refilled and the toilet paper came very close to running out! I tried to find a member of staff on reception, but nobody was there or around the premises.Overall a pleasant stay and the staff (when around) were very friendly and helpful

My friend and I stayed at Glendevon whilst in town for a gig, we had a twin room that on arrival was spacious, clean, had an extra bed, a newly fitted kitchen and what looked like a freshly fitted and super clean bathroom too, the beds were comfy enough and the amenities were perfect for a room that only cost just over £20. Thanks for a great stay!

Cheap Cheerful Convenient- Rating 4/5
Having read the reviews, was expecting the worst to be honest!! But, staff at reception very friendly, easy check in. Room basic and dated, furniture old and tired but all very clean. Bed freshly made, bright white bedding, clean towels, soap, shower gel, kettle, tea, coffee etc, tv, hairdryer.... shower feeble but worked and a clean bathroom. Really cannot fault the hotel. Worth the price as it meant we could have a night away. Parking close by £10 for 24 hours. That was a bonus too.. So pleased we came

Pleasantly surprised- Rating 4/5
Room was clean, bed very comfortable but overhead shower not ideal when you don't want wet hair. Wifi was good and available in our room which i was very happy about. 24 hour reception with friendly and helpful staff. Public areas were clean. The only negative would be that breakfast would be very boring if staying longer than two nights but ideal for what we had.

Excellent value for money, clean, tidy and friendly staff. - Rating 5/5
I stayed with my friend for two nights in a twin room, the Room was very clean and well presented, we didn’t bother with breakfast so I can’t comment, but I would definitely return, the only down side is no parking, but it looked like most of the hotels were the same, we were lucky and got a space outside on there road so just didn’t move the car until we were ready to go home, I can imageine in the summer months it’s a bit of a nightmare.Great value for money, close to the beach and a short walk to the shops, restaurants and bars.

Clean, warm, and welcoming - Rating 4/5
The rooms were clean, bedding was fresh, bathroom was clean and amenities (Tea, coffee, kettle etc) all fine, though we were lacking milk.Breakfast was good, continental buffet style, toast and croissants, butter and preserves, selection of cereals and fruit juices, yogurt, ham, cheese, freshly boiled eggs.The hotel itself could do with a little TLC; stairway carpet is showing wear, the bedroom ceiling had watermarks from previous leaks, but for a stay that worked out at £15 per person per night in the middle of January, it was perfectly acceptable.

Surprising Stay - Rating 4/5
After a read of reviews online I was surprised when visiting the Glendevon Hotel to find it an enjoyable visit. It was very clean and we were supplied with plenty of supplies which we needed. The location of the hotel in an older, poorer area of the town and some of the indoor decor were the only downsides we had to our stay. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

get what you pay for - Rating 2/5
after changing to a room with a secure door lock... room was fine, clean , new towels everyday. Shower was bad and sometimes cold, mainly due to large old building and low water pressure i believe. Breakfast was non existent on monday ... all lights were off nothing set out... asked at reception and they went off to call someone... bizarre, otherwise breakfast was there for the rest of the week and cooked buffet was nice. Although got turned away once as my room no. wasn't listed as having breakfast and didn't have time to find the person at reception before work.... But overall was cheap and adqeduate for a week whilst i worked, reception was friendly and helpful when they were about. I wouldn't want to stay longer especially not if i was on holiday as showers were terrible and also hot water was timed an not on at certain points of the day.
Response
Dear Mr Powell, Thankyou for your comments we are pleased that your room was clean enough for you. We do sometimes experience low water pressure due to the age of the building this is something we are trying to rectify. Breakfast hours are 8.00 - 9.00 midweek, i am sorry you were left of the list the day you were turned away. There is always someone on reception 24/7, perhaps they were called away from reception for 5mins or so.
