Good but could be better
Pros:

Lovely location

Cons:

Well no proper kettle in the room, and ordered the burger meal in reastraunt, it cost €20 then comes with a tiny portion of chips, then you still get charged for miwadi . For €20 miwadi should be free and plate filled with chips

Beautiful Views of Schull Harbor with convenient access to Town
Pros:

We enjoyed a beautiful view of Schull Harbor where we watched a sailing regatta on bright Saturday afternoon. The room had plenty of dressers and closet space and the bathroom was clean and had plenty of hot water. The hotel restaurant served a good breakfast buffet.

Cons:

We found everything to our liking. My wife and I would come back.

Service at breakfast was literally non existent. After waiting for a while we left and went to cafe down the street.
