A challenge.
Pros:

Staff superb and very helpful. Food very good. Actual comfort of room OK. Location good.
However the stairs up to rooms 3, 4 our room, 5 and 6 are extremely dangerous at the top where they narrow and turn.
I booked the White Swan as it advertised a twin bedded room (which seems to be a rarety round Filey).
This meant we had to be in Room 4 which is up the dangerous stairs.
As I am somewhat disabled in movement and the climb and coming down was a great challenge. I was asked if I wanted to change but as this meant a double bed I didn't accept.
The stairs need completely rebuilding creating a flat landing at the top so one can turn on to the corridor. The right hand hand rail needs to stand off the wall so it can be gripped properly.
I am amazed that the current arrangement is acceptable to the licencing authorities.

Cons:

See above.

Would not recommend or return
Pros:

The staff were friendly and helpful

Cons:

Not possible to use shower or sink due to hot water issues. Inside kettle was filthy so no cuppa. Evening meal prices were excessive for what you got. Had to shoulder slam the door to unstick door to open it. Carpet in breakfast room was filthy. Both toasters didn’t work. Seriously need a maintenance plan. Heard others talking in the breakfast room about similar issues.

Enjoyed the stay
Pros:

It was quiet, just about the right size. Nice touch to have firestick movies although not sure if a guest left it behind. Fairly clean. Breakfast was good on the Sunday morning

Cons:

Broken window, shower wasn't emptying properly. Kettle was full of old water and the mug hasn't been washed. Breakfast was undercooked on Saturday morning. The maintenance isn't up to scratch and appears very poor DIY. It was not inviting to have dinner as the atmosphere was lacking. Somewhere comfortable for guests to sit down was missing as the room was very small
