Hayfield Manor
Showers unusable in our two rooms. Blazing hot water and nothing else. Restaurants were under staffed. Food was good and there were multiple restaurants.

The Dean Cork
The location was great. Hotel was well appointed. Staff was very friendly (especially Maeve). Standard rooms are a tight fit but cute. Sadly, construction blocked the views of the water. Pool was tepid and steam room didn't work. All in all, would stay here again.
