    A place for a good pint.
    Joe S.

    I absolutely loved this place. Bad ass OG Irish pub. I highly recommend you come here, pull up a stool at the bar and enjoy a pint of the black. The bartender made my wife a nice mixed berry gin and tonic In the only pink glass in the bar. Live music and local fun conversations.

    Great music everyday! Be there before music start to get the seat by the band. There has 8 musicians last night. They are so talented. Traditional Irish song. The band usually start around 9 PM. The bartender she super nice they explain all kind of Irish beer to us. Great place to hang out for a some cold beer and music.

    Stopped in for a nightcap after a lovely dinner nearby. Recommended by our taxi driver earlier in the evening. Walking in it was fairly packed out with happy and cheerful people. The banter was top class and the mixture of cultures made it all the better. It was near impossible to get a seat so we sat out the back in the smoking area which overlooks the river and Donegal castle. So peaceful and tranquil. Highly recommend for a drink and music if that's what you're after

    A great little neighborhood pub packed on a Sunday night with folks of all ages - listen to some great music while sipping a pint or two!

    Everything you'd want in a pub. Great music and great people. We visited in the off-season, and the place was a delight.

    As a hotel, this place leaves a lot to be desired. The room…read morewe got 'with a view' requires you to lean over the bed, stick your face up to the window and look left. If you want an inch more of a view, open the window and hang your right eyeball out. The carpet is stained and truest a huge mess. Hard to walk on it without getting the heebie jeebies. Unfortunately, slippers weren't even close to making the cut. We went to charge our devices and found there was only one outlet which was being used by their mini tablet which is used to display hotel information...goodbye mini! We looked all over and yes, this was the only outlet except for in the bathroom. Speaking of the bathroom, the handles kept falling off. A bit of a puzzle to put each piece back on. If you're looking for a place to sleep, mov on to another place

    My goodness. I don't even know where to begin. This place should be condemned. It's a dirty place…read morethat is falling apart. Carpets are not clean. Terribly rude staff at the front desk. They gave me the wrong manager contact info. Last night, a man was screaming obscenities throughout the evening outside the doors of this place. The night security didn't do anything. The hotel is literally falling apart. The light in the bathroom doesn't even work. The place should just be torn down. I wouldn't recommend staying here.
