Basic hotel - welnessgedeelte is overroepen.
Pros:

Vriendelijk personeel.
De kamers zijn gedateerd maar proper. De badkamer is aan vernieuwing toe. Het 3e bed was niet comfortabel (liep af naar 1 kant).
Het ontbijt is in orde maar basic.

Cons:

Het viel ons wat tegen dat er geen pub in het dorp was. Dus aten we 's avonds à la carte in het hotel. De keuze was erg beperkt maar het eten was in orde. Er zaten enorm veel vliegen in het restaurant wat echt wel storend was.
Het zwembad en de kleedkamers etc. zijn aan vernieuwing toe. Er zijn roest- en andere vlekken waardoor het gewoon niet hygiënisch lijkt. De helft van het zwembad werd afgesloten voor een zwemlesje voor 2 kinderen en wordt dus ook door niet-hotelgasten gebruikt.

Beautiful hotel in a stunning location!!
Pros:

This was our 3rd or 4th stay here, but the first in over 2yrs. It was so nice to see the hotel get a make over inside, it was so bright and fresh. The room we had was fab, spacious and a beautiful view. The staff are lovely, so friendly and the food was gorgeous in the bar.

Cons:

We went for breakfast at 9am, an hour after it had started serving and it was a little disappointing. There wasn't alot on offer and what was there looked like it had been sitting out for a while so we ended up not eating. Hate to say something negative because we love this hotel and will be staying again, but just wasn't a great morning that morning for breakfast.

A pleasant stay in a beautiful location.
Pros:

The location was fabulous with beautiful views across the bay.

Cons:

For breakfast, some croissants or pastries would have been nice. The cooked breakfast could have been a little warmer.

Gerne wieder, sehr zu empfehlen!!
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotes ist einfach super schön, die ganze Landzunge bietet viel zu besichtigen (Küste, Classiebawn Castle... + die weitere Umgebung (Atlantic Sheepdogs, Marble Arch Cave, Donegal Castle, Silver Strand...) auch. Die Parksituation ist spitze.

Cons:

Zu wenig Abstellfläche im Bad, auch für die Handtücher gibt es zu wenig Möglichkeiten zum Aufhängen. An dem Tisch mit den Stühlen ist kein Licht.
