Pros:

De locatie

Cons:

Twin room had toch 2 bedden aan elkaar.
Vanaf parkeerplaats door rokersruimte naar binnen.
Kraan in badkamer stond verkeerd afgesteld wat een waterballet tot gevolg had.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful setting
Pros:

Terrific breakfast, and a lovely dining room. We were more than pleased with the Listowel Arms. It was a beautiful hotel, especially for the price. The staff was more than accommodating, very friendly, helpful, & attended to all of our needs. We were a large group and everyone was similarly impressed. We will be staying here again.

Cons:

I doubt I could think of a thing that would make our stay better.

Pros:

Clean and nice breakfast

Cons:

Due to a family matter we had to leave earlier. While I understand paying in full would be required there was no offer to remove the breakfast charges for 2 days. Would have been nice as we did not consume any food to charge for.
