This post is a little different from most here, in that I'm not writing a review of this business, but rather providing testimony to the decency of the man that runs it. A few weeks ago, while on vacation in Ireland, my wife, sister and I found ourselves impossibly lost on the streets of Kilkenny. Spotting a commercial work vehicle, parked temporarily, across a neighborhood courtyard, I drove over to it, to ask for directions. The person behind the wheel, whom I'm assuming was Tony, not only provided us with directions, he took it upon himself to escort us to our destination a good mile away, through complicated city streets. We followed his work van every foot of the way, and when split up by traffic on a couple occasions, Tony pulled over to assure we were still behind him. Turns out our destination (our room for the night) was quite tucked away, and without Tony's assistance I'm not sure we would have ever found it. I used to be a house painter myself, long ago. I can't attest to this company's professionalism, but I know from my own experience in the same line of work, a person, after working a long, exhausting day, who would still go that far out of their way at the end of it, to help a total stranger in need, almost without question would provide top-notch service to a paying customer. read more
