    The location is pretty remote. It’s only a few minutes walk from a bus stop, and it’s a beautiful area, and it’s very peaceful at night which is a plus over city hostels, it’s just not the center of the action

    The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, it has great facilities, and it’s a nice area if you’re looking for something off the beaten path and away from the crowded cities

    There are no windows in the room. You share a toilet and shower with four other rooms so you have to wait at busy times and other residents can be noisy in the shared hallway.

    This is a very cheap room and it is perfectly fine. It is a small room and it warm and comfortable. There is a shared kitchen too so you could microwave yourself a meal or make a pot noodle etc. It is very close to the Hollyhead to Dublin ferry terminal for walk-on passengers. It is an easy walk into town.

    A bit concerned with the door to the room, stiff and very difficult to lock, from outside I don't think I was able to lock it properly, so didn't stay out long when I went for a walk to find something for dinner. Closing it from the inside, the door needs a good pull, I think I knocked out my Digital TV reception one of these times. From the inside you can see the lock misaligns. All the doors seemed stiff, could hear people struggling with bathroom door, there is a moment where you wonder if you will get out! Also the room next to mine. Electrics, the socket for the TV aerial was hanging off the wall, also the adapter uses for the kettle seemed faulty, the kettle didn't work. The staff man came to sort, but just swapped to the other socket, the kettle did then work. But, I think the lamp bulb shorted because of it! Slightly worrying fire safety wise. Kettle is very near bed too, was a bit concerned knock it off, maybe would be better where the TV is. A little fold down table, and chair may be useful in kitchen, otherwise eating in bedroom.

    The room was fine, it's the smallest single I think, and no window, which could be a bit claustrophobic for some. The bed was comfortable. Bathroom was shared, but spacious and clean. There is a small kitchen area, with microwave, mini cooker and fridge. This was useful.

    The room has no window and you can hear everything. For me, it was okay, but I would not recommend it to people with a light sleep.

    I just stayed there for one night to take the ferry to Dublin. It is very close to the train station and the port. It is a small room and has everything one needs. The owner was very nice.

    Glad I brought earplugs - the rooms are small and the person in the next room was a very loud sleeper.

    This place is cheap, but the room and bathroom were clean, with a kettle and tea and the bed was fine. All I needed and hoped for.

    The room radiator was a little noisy from water flow and transfer of noise from the boiler which was nearby outside.

    The location was very convenient for the ferry terminal. The room was comfortable and tidy. The check-in was fast and simple even though I arrived late in the evening

    There are various rooma in this establishment, but they are all listed on booking.com as separate establishments. This confuses thinga especially when pictures of rooms are mixed up. I was in single room marked woth number 3 on the door, and it had 1 window facing the back. You need to contact the owner for check in. Small light did not work in the room. Wifi password was indicated on a framed paper by the stairs. No shower gel/shampoo on the bathroom

    Simple single room with shared bathroom, as described. The bed was comfortable and the linens were clean Very close to the station and the bus stop, which I needed There is a shared kitchenette

    Having to wake the owner up so I could leave. He looked exhausted he also runs a taxi so he is probably working long hours. If he could arrange for a spare key so early starters could depart without disturbing him I sure it would help his rest

    it was excellent value. Arriving late evening the manager/owner was helpful. The location being close to railway station was a big plus. Having a safe secure place to store my bike was reassuring. If you are on a tight budget, and on a cycle it is great place to stay

    The bathroom is shared, not private. This wasn't made clear in the listing. Room 2 has no window, and was extremely hot, even with the radiator turned off. No fresh air. The gaps in the door meant the hallway light lit up the room when the lights were off. Only one thin pillow on the bed. The room is tiny!

    The room and bathroom were clean. Located close to the station.
