Very very very good. One of the things that stands head and shoulders above other hotels IS THE STAFF. Always happy, friendly & helpful. I hope I get to stay here again.

If all the places we stayed in Ireland this hands down was our favorite. We stayed here for 3 nights. The entire staff is amazing. They are well trained in excellent customer service and always are happy. They were so accommodating and you never felt that they were doing something because it was their job. We had not only breakfast but dinner in the hotel and everything was delicious and cooked perfectly. We had drinks on the lounge and again the service was perfect. The restaurant and lounge are busy with local people but we never needed to book ahead.

This hotel is excellent, nice bar and the onsite restaurant is excellent for both breakfast and dinner. Location is great as it's on the main street in the town. Staff were very helpful.
