Pros:

I arrived late and had an early check out so didn't use any of the facilities. The staff however ensured that I could be available of a continental breakfast before leaving. The location is good for exploring west Donegal and excellent value.

Very enjoyable and definitely stay again.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. Staff very attentive and helpful. Check in was very easy and receptionist more than helpful. Had dinner in hotel first evening and meal was very enjoyable. We were going to a wedding second day and reception organised taxis for us.
