Grungiest place we have ever stayed. The showers were so bad we didnt want to touch anything. The lower bunk bed is on the floor. Behind the double bed along the baseboards was mold and yuck. You get what you pay for. Location Location Location

Located on a busy road. We were not able to do our own laundry. The laundry was returned damp to still very wet which made travelling on in Ireland very uncomfortable. Not recommend…

Très proche de la chaussée des géants, ambiance sympa, nous avons bénéficié à 4 d'un dortoir de 6. Par contre, 1 seule salle de bain, souvent occupée, et cuisine avec peu de choses pour cuisiner: pas de poivre, pas d'huile ...

The bed was comfy, though the room was worn and not very clean. The bathrooms were similarly well worn and not particularly clean. One shower was out of order and the other was barely working. It was very cheap though.
