I recently had a wonderful stay at Moyvalley Hotel, which impressed me with its beautiful grounds and well-maintained facilities. The rooms were spacious and clean, but I felt the breakfast selection could use some improvement. The staff were exceptional, especially Aoife at reception, making the overall experience enjoyable. However, the dining atmosphere didn't quite meet my expectations due to the bar's layout and decor.

Overall, it was a nice stay, but I expected more for what we paid, particularly in terms of food quality.
