“You get what you pay for!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

The service at reception wasn't at all good. After waiting a few minutes we went into the bar to ask the bar man to contact the receptionist as we wanted to book in. He actually came out from the bar and booked us in. Was attending a wedding near by so didn't actually spend too long at this guest house. We were given a room at the front of the property unfortunately so we were woken up at 7.30 by the continuous noise of traffic. While the room was small I have to say it & the bathroom were immaculately clean. We got breakfast
the next morning. Had difficulty finding the restaurant as you have to go back out to the court yard and take an seperate entrance into it. I have to say the breakfast was not at all good. The sausages were deep fat fried and horrible. Again we were served by the same bar man who dealt with us the previous day. He seems to be the only one working there.

Room Tip: Ask for a room at the rear of the property.

“Good bar, accommodation needs work”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

Stayed here a couple of nights. Room was ok, but lots of little things let it down- sink tap lever missing, only 1 flat pillow each, only one bedside table for double bed, bracket for soap dispenser left on wall, rawl plug holes in walls, noise from outside when bar closes(could do with secondary glasing) etc.

Didnt try the food but heard it was good. Steak on a stone? Not if you want it rare as it carries on cooking unless you eat fast.

Could be so much better with a little TLC and updating.

Good music and bar area. .

“SHOCKING ACCOMMODATION!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Upon arrival we checked in straight away, the receptionist did not seem that he wanted to be there, he was very unfriendly and had no manners, we payed there and then for 3 nights and we did not even get a thank you from him. He told us our rooms were located outside through the courtyard and when we went outside we had to look for our rooms because there are several doors there! Our toilet would not flush, our radiator would not work and we complained about it the first night but nothing was done so we complained again the following morning and it was fixed by lunchtime. Our room keys needed to be recharged daily, our room was on the ground floor and if someone in the room above us walked on their floor our ceiling light would bang therefore we didn't get much sleep!!! No internet connection in rooms even though in the guestbook in our room it says internet is in every room(why lie?)!! The worst accommodation we have stayed in and we certainly will never return!! 3 star? more like a 1 star but on a positive note the food was lovely!!

“just had dinner but really good”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2011

went here for dinner in mid July. they had an early bird for under €20. really good choice and value but I wanted a particular steak and so we went off the full menu. I had chicken satay to start really good. Then had to have a steak as its a steakhouse! went with steak on the stone as per numerous recommendations, was not dissapointed! great friendly service and good wine list. too full for dessert. great place for food. the bar was buzzing that eve, lots of steak on stone from what I saw walking through.
