Also upon checking in my room was changed from the larger one to a smaller one, I was not even given an option. She did it to accommodate a larger family that came along... all fine and good but maybe a conversation should take place first?? She then got extremely upset when I asked for a towel past "working hours" I apologized profusely for the inconvenience (the inconvenience being her stepping two feet too her left and reaching in a cabinet). I then had to leave earlier than expected to catch a bus that only came along twice a day and even though she was awake and in the house and messaging me she refused to let me into the locked kitchen to retrieve my food before I left. It was 30 minutes before the kitchen opened you see. Everyone in town had something to say about this lady and none of it was nice. Go figure. I recommend the Rainbow Hostel down the road, it was in front of the bus stop I waited at and they invited me in because it was so cold and nothing was locked up everyone was free to roam where they wished! Imagine that! Don't let the pretty pictures fool you. That's all this place has to offer.

There is a fully stocked kitchen and comfortable public area. There is free laundry, but you can only use the machines after 6pm as they are being used for the hostel before then. There is one washer and one dryer, which we were hoping to use, but people were lined up to wash their clothes until about 10pm, so we didn't get a chance. It was pretty noisy at night - not sure if they have an upstairs area or what, but there was a lot of clomping around. It is about a 10 min drive from the Cliffs of Moher. Walking distance from a few pubs and cafes.

It just so happened that it was a bright, sunny day with a clear blue sky so we thought we'd take advantage of the nice weather. The O'Connor pub is right around the corner. We had some really good fish and chips for dinner along with a few pints of Guinness and Smithwick's. For dessert we had the Homemade Baileys and Biscuit Ice-cream with toffee sauce! The next morning after breakfast at the hostel we took the relatively short drive up to the visitor center and walked the cliffs. It wasn't as sunny as the day before so we were glad we got some nice pictures from the boat. And even though our room/window was facing the main street on the ground floor it was very quiet at night.

We only stayed here one night, though. I really want to give this hotel 5 stars, but I'm torn. At about 9:30 pm, after taking a shower, my son was charging his Chromebook. All of a sudden, the fan shuts off, and both of our outlets are no longer working. There was no red light alerting us to a tripped outlet. My son rings the bell (which is what we were told to do in case of an emergency after hours), and no one came. After talking to our other family members, I learned that my parents' room also no longer has power. Now this is a huge problem, because he uses a CPAP machine, and he would not be able to use it without electricity. I also called the phone number on the list of instructions, and it did not connect me. I had other family members try this, and they also could not connect. We had no electricity for chargers and no fan. It was super hot in the room, even with the windows open. We ended up getting power about 6 am, but the fact remains that we were unable to contact anyone that night. On a better note, their complimentary breakfast was gorgeous and delicious. Eddie, our server, was wonderful. I would probably skip this hotel if I'm in the area again, but I don't regret staying here. I just wish we were able to have contacted someone that night and then we would have had a better night.
