"Overall fine, however there is no air conditioning. I was told it’s a rarity in most Irish hotels - and even their homes. They did provide a fan on request. Bed somewhat hard for my curvy body. The included breakfast was great - full Irish breakfast if you want."

"The property is a fairly nice place. Nothing special as far as rooms go, and the lack of air conditioning was a definite negative on a hot day. Windows helped but they don't have screens in the windows. Front desk staff was very friendly. Parking was easy. Grounds were very nice. My children enjoyed exploring the grounds."
