The room was clean and spacious, bathroom was clean and again it was a good size. Very central location and the sign outside the alleyway was very helpful.
10/10 super central and cosy guesthouse in Clifden.
Super location, clean rooms, fast wifi and the Nespresso machines in the room were a welcome surprise.
The kitchen and entrance are getting a refurb but its a minor quibble, it looks exciting . The wine bar will open in July but the space is free to use for guests and is a really cool, chill space.
Really friendly local owner who gave us some local tips on the hidden gems of Connemara .
10/10
Because the premises are sited so centrally in Clifden sited as it is back from the main street the accommodation was both very convenient for all types of shopping and dining yet also very quiet at night.

An overall positive evaluation for this accomodation. Tiny, but cosy and in a central well served position in Clifdenn.
The checkin was quick and easy as was check out. Our rm no1 was above a smoking area so this was unpleasant. Our coffee machine didnt work for coffee but was ok for tea. The bed waa comfortable and the shower was powerful.
Great location. Very dark , dated and depressing, with an overpowering room air freshener device in the bathroom that almost made me choke, so I removed it. I don't recall any amenities aside from the not-so-robust wifi. Pricey, perhaps for the location, but not for anything else.
This unfortunately was probably our stay in Ireland! This did not reflect any photos as per expedia site… Fraudulent photos.
No staff, poor kept amenities.
Musty moldy smell throughout building.
When we contact the manager he said that the building was under construction? and offered us breakfast vouchers, however there was no sign of any construction activity.
We had no other option at the time.
I prepaid this accommodation, and when I arrived there was no one there. My call to management did not go through. I walked throughout the property and called out, but no one responded. Waited a half hour, and had to find another accommodation, as it was getting later in the evening From what I saw, the place was extremely substandard. Would never recommend. My focus now is a refund.
Property was fraudulently represented on Expedia. Continental breakfast does not exist. Wine/ bar photos do not exist. Filthy hallway and dirty leopard print carpet , dangerous stairs to room that has possibly/ probably used sheets, a shower that does not drain and invisible staff. Paid for 2 night - stayed for one. Do not stay here.
Property really sticks of mold and sewage. Absolutely worst place I have ever seen. Bed not made up. Bathroom atrocious. Carpet filthy, dark hallways. Left after an hour, couldn’t stay there. Woeful.
