Good, but noisy building
The stay was nice, people were helpful, but the noise level in the hotel is high. The walls are incredibly thin and the front door is used constantly by staff starting at 6:45 in the morning and slams shut every time. It was incredibly loud and disruptive.

Beautiful view of entire city from bar & patio!
Excellent location to avoid city center, was very quiet, small room but had everything you need, short very do-able walk to city centre, staff were all very kind and helpful, on-street parking but was not a problem getting a spot. But even better than all of that for us was the bar and patio in the back. So cozy and beautiful with a spectacular view of entire city. And at night the view is stunning with city lights.

Affordable, safe area about 10 minute walk to downtown area. On street parking. Overall, the property was OK, seems a bit tired and needs a little TLC.

Liked: Staff & service
We had a large room. Cleanliness was just OK (carpet, linens, window treatments were a little musty). But staff was kind, and the bar, restaurant and outdoor deck were amazing. Lively, well decorated and with a wonderful view of the city. Breakfast was great, with both buffet items and hearty hot breakfast. They catered to my gluten-free and dairy-free requests. We were able to find ample street parking in front of the B&B for our rental car. Note: The later you arrive, the less parking there is.

A marv place to have as a base when you´re visiting Derry! The respond from the staff felt so friendly and more like I was a part of a family! :) You reach the center within a 7 min walk. The including breakfast is unusual comparing to other hotels where you have to pay extra. This one was marv! I was traveling with a car and the road outside the Hotel could be a tricky to find a space when it is also used by people living on the same street. Otherwise, I´ll of course visit Serendipity for my next visit in Derry!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was in Room 2. The cleanliness in the bathroom was bad. Shower area had NUMEROUS places with black mold. We did not notice the mold until in the morning after daylight. When we took a shower the water seal on the shower leaked out on the floor. The flooring is tile and appears to be buckling up on the edge of the shower pan. The transition from the bathroom to the room is unfinished. I took photos to support my claims and will produce copies of the photos if requested. Parking is a situation where if you get a spot you are lucky.

La chambre et les sanitaires sont propres et bien décorés. L'hôtesse est très gentille et serviable. Par contre... Chambre très petite, difficile d'y poser nos 2 valises ou de se croiser. La salle de bains de la chambre 4 ne correspond à aucune des photos. Elle est minuscule. L'évier de 20 cm de large est logé entre la douche et le mur. Impossible d'y entrer les épaules pour se brosser les dents. Le sèche serviette est collé aux wc, ce n'est pas très hygiénique et impossible d'y mettre les 2 geands essuies. Ventilation de la salle de bains bouchée par la poussière. Insonorisation très mauvaise. On rntend les ronflements des voisins. On n'a pas été prevenus qu'on devrait monter nos valises aux 2eme etage par l'escalier. Quant au parking ... il faut se garer dans la rue si on a la chance de trouver une place tout près.
