The Snug Townhouse
Great location on Quay Street with the Spanish Arch parking garage next door (discounted rate of 12€/day.) No lift so if handicapped be sure to request something on 1st floor. There are oodles of pubs, fish & chip joints, and boutiques right out the front door. Nice showers with plenty of warm water ...
