This is an excellent hotel. The rooms were very clean and had very nice showers/bathrooms. We enjoyed our view of the harbor from our room, and the breakfast the morning we checked out. Note, the property does not have AC, so we were a bit warm visiting during a hot July day. However, we were able to cool the room down in the evening and sleep comfortably. Would recommend to others!

I LOVED our room #4. It was so pretty the room itself and the view was spectacular out our waterside window. Literally I could have jumped onto the water. The restaurant had good dinners. The included breakfast had the nicest free (included in the bill) breakfast buffet of anywhere I have stayed in Ireland. Parking was available on site. It was so convenient to downtown. What a wonderful place!
