Really exceeded all expectations, very well kept facility! Lovely room, great mattresses, nice shower. The only loss of points is the beds are short (Seemingly a common issue in Ireland) I'm 193cm and my feet touch the bottom and my head's jammed against the top.. Luckily the missus is short and I slept diagonally and stole her leg room. That and the green emergency lights are a bit too bright when you're sleeping. Other than that, I'd 100% recommend and even despite that I'd come back again if I was in Ireland again.

An excellent place to rest for a few days, for example if you want to go up Benbulbin mountain, the rooms are small but really nice, it is a quiet and sheltered place. The shower is small but fine, the bed is surprisingly very comfortable, there is also a shared kitchen and living room.
