It's a small hotel attached to a bar. The bar is more prominent than the hotel. The rooms are basic.

This is a strange hotel. It's above a bar (never again) and very old. The manger showed us to our room and said I know it's really loud because of the surfing festival, but I promise you that our music will shut off promptly at 10 pm. The bass from the music was making our walls vibrate and shake. For 60plus travelers-not good. 10:30, place was still packed and blasting music. I call, manager says he sorry, but hopefull will stop soon. It did but@ 11pm, but quickly fround out that every noise anyone makes carries through the whole place. Couple arguing at 5:30 am, toliets that I think are old incenerator ones! My GOD, I couldn't wait to get out of there! They added a few updated items -cool mirror. Thats about it. They post signs all over the place that booking .com gives them 9/10-I call bull sh**!

The weather was hot and no Air Conditioner, so we left the window open. There was a strong odor that made it hard for both of us to sleep. Also, on Expedia, we signed up for a full breakfast. When we arrived, the hotel said it had no record of our request for breakfast. We ate dinner at their restaurant. The food was good, However, it was the only restaurant that we found in Ireland that put a Mandatory Tip (10%) on the bill for our meal. Otherwise the property was quaint and comfortable. The staff was friendly.
