A little disappointed
Pros:

The young lady who greeted us and showed us to the room was very pleasant and helpful. Sorry, didn't get her name

Cons:

The experience didn't match the reviews, the basis on which we booked. The room was adequate, not particularly comfortable, and it was more expensive than a 4 star hotel we're staying in Kenmare, a much more tourist place.
