convenient location friendly staff small room high price

the location was really convenient. it was a short walk to the center. free coffee was available . the staff was friendly and helpful. cleanliness was very noticeable.

My room was very small. i also thought the price for one night was quite high. it felt a little impersonal. It did not feel like a traditional irish b&b. the experience felt too focused on making money.

Acceptable Stay with Some Shortcomings

small room limited parking

My room was not in the main building. It was actually down the street. This was not communicated prior to arrival. The allocated room was quite small. It also had limited space in the bathroom. Breakfast was back at the main building. This required walking. The parking was not great either as spaces were limited.
