Das Hotel war ausgezeichnet und sauber.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war reichlich und gut.

Cons:

Gleichzeitig mit unsererm Aufenthalt wurde eine Gruppe Kinder/Jugendliche (ca. 30 Pers.) beherbergt.
Wir sind uns Nachtruhe ab ca. 2200Uhr gewohnt. Nun ja, andere Länder, andere Sitten.
Das Hotel kann da jedoch nicht viel dafür.

Lower ground room facing the front road, so noisy with cars passing g by and couldn’t leave window open as on ground floor, very old decor and key cards were a bit of a nuisance

Good stay at Gortahork
Pros:

A very friendly and helpful receptionist Aionya checked us in. She was very helpful with information and even carried my bag to the room. Our room was large and comfortable with plenty of room for two suitcases. Easy to find with lots of parking. We ate at The Strand which was a 4 minute drive. Really good food in a local pub. Comfy bed.

Cons:

Nothing amazing but good for the price point. We would stay again.
