Your hostess, Noreen McGinty (her website reminded me), is wonderfully warm, but not strange or overly nosy as some hosts on our journey could be (five long years ago). She reminded us of our moms and told us about how her son lives in America (I can't remember where). Anyway, her house was so tidy you could eat off the floors. Her breakfast was yummy and Donegal is amazing. I say this about most of Ireland, but Donegal is just even more beautiful than those parts of Southern Ireland that everyone raves about. It is more remote, more green, more insane views. When we go back again, I want to rent a cottage in Donegal and just soak it in (and I am not a nature person). The Arches is approved of by the Irish Tourist Board and, according to their website, is recommended by Lonely Planet, fancy schmancy. The rates are currently listed at 65 to 70 Euros for a double room.

No mention that I needed to check-in by a certain hour. We show up with my family 2 weeks later at around 7pm. This guy (the owner's husband?) comes out and tells me that they had given away our room because we hadn't shown up on time. I couldn't believe it. He was extremely rude/defensive and it was clear that he just wanted us to leave. No offer to help find a local B&B. It was a Saturday night at the peak of Summer. Completely unacceptable! As luck would have it we ended up staying at the nearby Inishduff B&B. This place is excellent and the owner, Ethna, could not have been more friendly.

The room I stayed in was lovely and airy with two big windows and a clean en-suite, the room was exceptionally clean and staff obviously takes pride in their work, breakfast was delicious and I was impressed with the menu which lets you decide what you want instead of having a fry pushed on you. The hostess was very helpful regarding things to do and taxis, I only stayed for two nights but I would like to come back again and stay there again for sure.

Located on Pearse Rd, which cuts through the city centre, the Pearse Lodge is about a 10-minute walk south of town. The size of the house is deceiving from its facade. What you'll find inside is an artfully-decorated, comfortable, bright and peaceful B&B run by a lovely couple named Mary and Kieron. They, with their daughter (their son is in university), live in the house as well, but this part is sectioned off from the B&B. Mary greeted us immediately and was full of passionate yet practical chatter, spouting off ideas and suggestions for Sligo without being pushy or overbearing. She had menus and maps and a really charming, charismatic way about her as she described that Sligo was a "food and music" town. Her enthusiasm for living in Sligo was obvious. Our room was, in a word, awesome. Large, bright, with a sitting area complete with a cappucino machine, wine cooler, full-length mirror, ipod dock. I also appreciated her design sense. The place could have been an art gallery or a boutique hotel - swanky but comfortable with some flavors of art nouveau. It had the right feng shui, and that's not easy. The common areas were lovely and our breakfast in the morning was fantastic -- made-from-scratch french toast with honey and homemade pancakes with blueberries and maple syrup. It's not often you'll find a B&B with friendly-but-not-overbearing proprietors, creative and tasteful decor, large rooms with bonus amenities, fabulous home made breakfasts and a short walk to town, all for 82 euros a night. Stay here in Sligo!

They have been doing this for over 20 years, so are quite good at it. Our room had a single and double beds with en suite, stocked with a small cafetiere, water cooker, coffee, tea, etc. The breakfasts on offer are also quite extensive. Mary does her own porridge, muesli which she soaks to soften it, pancakes, full Irish breakfast and numerous other items. It's about 1km into town from them but there really aren't many options directly in town. I look forward to meeting them again soon.
