Very worn down hotel, basic rooms, beds not the most comfortable. It's too expensive for what you get. Don't eat there, trust me and find another place for food, it simply is food with no taste.

The hallways and rooms need a makeover, some fresh paint, paintings and lampshades that are not cracked. A bathroom light above sink without annoying noisy air conditioner. Needs a bit of personality in the rooms, a few prints, a few decorative cushions... The staff were nice people though.

We enjoyed our stay. Ideally placed for exploring Inishowen.The bed was comfortable and the room perfectly adequate. We ate in the bar where the staff were very attentive and friendly. Decided against the restaurant as we thought the room (where we had breakfast,) looked uninviting for a romantic dinner.
