I could hear EVERYTHING. The soundproofing was non-existent! I heard other guests. Every footstep and conversation came through the walls. The bed was quite uncomfortable. It was like sleeping on a board!

coffee facilitiesspacious roomcommunal areabreakfast option
The room had coffee and tea facilities with biscuits for anytime use. i also appreciated that the room was bright and spacious. i really liked the communal area provided . It encouraged socializing. breakfast options included a home cooked irish breakfast with french pressed coffee.
the rooms are upstairs, so guests must carry luggage. this was only a slight inconvenience.

the location puts guests only a short distance from the beach. the hotel provides superb views from the breakfast area! the building is right on the beach and a short walk to the main restaurant.
