It wet nice and quiet. Small number of rooms and access of bathroom and kitchen was not busy. Horses out back enjoyed a few apples.
Good access. Clean. Facilities available for cooking. Bed room comfortable and quiet. Horses out back enjoyed apples. Watch out for electric fence though.
Clean, tidy, comfortable. All you could ask for based on price. Needed somewhere cheap to stay for work and this place did the job.
good price and lovely place
fully equiped kitchen, except plates :) very difficult to lock bathroom doors
Small room but very clean, quiet and comfortable single bed. 20 minutes drive to Limerick. Shared sitting room with tv and kitchen use but couldn’t get stove to work but cafe and small store in town and can order takeaway meal to house if needed. Lovely friendly older couple live in 1 room. Happy with my short stay here.
Quiet location with basic facilities. Price paid reflects what you get. Room and bathroom were very clean.
Reasonably close to Limerick
Food choices at bit limited, but able to cook at the house
La chambre était plutôt propre.
La propriétaire ne vit pas sur le site donc je n'ai vu personne. La maison n'est pas en très bon état. La cuisine et la salle de bain était sales (possiblement à cause des autres locataires). La chambre était plutôt propre mais le chauffage était à fond sans possibilité de le baisser et la fenêtre laissait passer l'air. Je ne suis pas restée pour passer la nuit là bas.
I was only here for one night for work so it did the job!
No breakfast provided, self service.
Stand alone property with no owner occupier in situ although extremely responsive landlord via text so no complaints about their communication. 3 bedrooms available to rent and a communal bathroom/kitchen/living room. 1 room unoccupied for my stay & the other room occupied by a couple. They told me they were staying there for a month now and that anothersingle male was in the 3rd room but no sign of him. That explains the fridge full of food. The couple were lovely people but not the accommodation arrangement i had expected.
The place was great. Nice people staying there as well. Liked the open fire. Kitchen had everything I needed. Great location for walks by the river.
Nice area,right by the river and easy check-in/out.Everything you need for self catering
Directions on Booking.com took me to a different location
Very clean Perfect for tradies working away from home Good price Kitchen Towels provided Place always roasting Big back garden leads to a river if you wanted to fish you could Great host works with you Quiet area
The location was perfect for my competition. The bed was conformable, the house was warm, the kitchen was well equipped. I couldn't have asked for more!
Mary is a lovely lady, kind. Perfect service. She makes you feel like you are home. Ser
Service
Quiet house, just what I needed.
Other quests left the bathroom less clean.
Very noisy all night
There was blood behind the bed.
Cogimos este alojamiento de ultima hora,el mismo día y nos llevamos una grata sorpresa. Aunque esté alejada del centro de Limerick,las vistas al río son preciosas y se respira tranquilidad. Cómo puntos fuertes,el patio exterior es enorme para un buen desayuno y la cocina compartida tiene todo lo necesario,además de ser espaciosa. Es cierto que la habitación es muy pequeña,pero la cama es cómoda.
Lo único que podría remarcar es mejorar la limpieza del baño.
Lit confortable, douche bien.
__ Chambre minuscule (environ 7 m²) difficile de circuler d'autant que l'armoire ne sert à rien, des étagères seraient plus fonctionnelles vu la dimension de la chambre. __ Isolation inexistante. Entre la chambre 1 et 2, tout s'entendait.
Appartement vieux. L’air froid passé sous la fenêtre de la chambre 3. Il faut mettre un oreiller pour bloquer l’air. A fuir
L'unica cosa positiva è stata la gentilezza della proprietaria, ma per il resto la casa era in un pessimo stato di manutenzione, il bagno angusto e non molto pulito,, la camera piccola e fredda. Nessun problema invece per trovare la casa seguendo le indicazioni ricevute né per parcheggiare proprio davanti.
The quiet stay away from the traffic of the city.
I did not like the empty house on arrival and not knowing who you would be sharing the house with, or if any other person would be there for the night. Also it was impossible to see the closet for the key.
Easy access very comfortable bed, towel provided peaceful and car parking available
No tv available but i never expected it cos it didn’t state it had one. It would have been good to see one though in bedroom.
Kuchnia wyposażona w podstawowe przybory do gotowania. Pokój przytulny z wygodnym łóżkiem.
Urządzenie do podgrzewania wody pod prysznicem wieczorem nie działało natomiast rano przy takiej samej konfiguracji pokręteł woda była ciepła.
Everything beautiful location brilliant host couldn't recommend it more
try to increase the water that run into the toilet tank
La cocina
Muy viejo
Das Hostel liegt malerisch an einem See mit Blick auf die Berge. Netter Pub vor Ort.
Lovely quiet location
Dated property, very small rooms
Čista, a tudi zelo lepa posteljina ter ogledalo v sobi.
Zelo mala soba za 2, iz hladilnika je zaudarjalo, nič pravega stika z lastnico, slab wc kotliček, tanke stene, ter premalo odlagalnih površin v sobi in v kopalnici.
Proximité avec la rivière
Pas de commerce à moins de 10min en voiture Tres Bryant
La propreté, l'entretien des locaux
The house was fine, as expected, the bathroom could use some repair work. Very nice surrounding area of O'briensbridge, many walkable canal paths and a nice coffee kiosk near the bridge.
Situé à plus ou moins mi-chemin entre Clifden et Cork, ce logement permet de faire une halte. Draps et linge de bain propres.
Je n'ai pas aimé devoir faire la vaisselle avant de manger. La vaisselle rangée dans le placard était sale. Dépôt blanc au fond des casseroles, couverts mal lavés, etc. Louche et ustensiles gras à côté des plaques de cuisson. Beaucoup de toiles d'araignée, tâches sur les murs. Je n'ai pas aimé qu'un homme, qui vit visiblement à l'arrière de la maison dans une cabane en tôle, laisse traîné ses canettes de bière vides tard dans la soirée. (4 sur le sol, à côté d'un sac qui en contenait plusieurs autres vides). Chacun fait ce qu'il veut mais ça n'inspire pas confiance.
Everything you could possibly want for a short stay.Met with the owner before we left,Nice friendly lady.Checking in couldn’t be easier,Room was perfect for our needs.Nice comfy bed.Well stocked kitchen.Nice cozy sitting room if you wanted to watch t,v,.Very quiet place.Had really good nights sleep.

Kopalnica, ....
Na chvíli jsme se cítili být součástí místní komunity, nebylo to neosobní ubytování hotelového typu. Jakkoli je pokoj malý, připadal nám velmi útulný. Kuchyň i obyvací pokoj se nám také moc líbily. Byli jsme tu jen na jednu noc a spalo se nám moc dobře.

The simplicity of the operation. It has potential but needs even a modest investment. A partner to take a stake in the enterprise could undertake the development necessary.
The outside front space needs improvement to the surface. The splendid 2+acre space at the back could be easily improved by simply mowing the meadow and improving the ground towards the river. The pillows were quite thin.
Living room was booked for "maintenance" for about a day, while no visible maintenance was actually going on. Backyard is huge but polluted. Some stange fellow used kitchen when I walked downstairs one day - definitely not another guest. Ok-ish for me, but would not recommend the place to others.
Super easy to find. Was exactly as described on booking.com I would certainly stay again if I am in the area as the bed was so comfy and the accommodation was clean.
Nothing.
It was easy get to
Room was a bit small
The house had plenty of parking. The internet worked well. The room was not big. The double bed was up against the wall. The bed was comfortable. The shared kitchen was big. The bathroom was okay, but the toilet took forever to fill up after you flushed it,
We had trouble finding the place on google maps. I phoned the owner, and she guided us to the house.
Nothing
I was met at the property by a odd acting, shirtless man, looking for tools from my van to fix the property. I didn't want to let him into the van but after he persisted, I agreed to lend him a hammer. I checked into the room with my 10 year old daughter and we left for the evening, returning around 10pm. At 11 the owner turned up at my bedroom, ranting, with a tin off beer and what appeared to be a paint scraper! He said he could see people in the back garden and Ask me to come out of the room to look. I reluctantly did but there was no one there! At this stage my daughter was extremely scared. I told him I was going to bed and locked the door. The rest of the night was spent by myself sitting on the bed watching over my daughter to make sure he didn't come back. Terrifying night altogether.
The location is fine, easy to find. Good parking.
Immediately met with handwritten "No parties/loud music" signs the second we opened the door was off-putting, and gave us a bad vibe. Immediately thought.. what kind of people stay here?! The "budget double" room was tiny, barely room to put a bag down, no hooks for wet towels. The bathroom didn't feel clean.
You wouldn’t expect much for 50/60 euros but I would always expect cleanliness and I’m not fussy! The only thing that was clean were the bed sheets. The bathroom was dirty and the room was dusty unfortunately. I wouldn’t recommend. No welcome when arriving
Mary's very kind lovely house
So close to the Shannon, literally running passed the garden fence
Keybox was hard to open
Problemloser check-in, Küche für Selbstversorger top, Bad und Zimmer schön sauber, zu empfehlen
Terrible communication, took our money. I booked this property and cancelled my booking not even 5 minutes after booking it upon realising the location was too far away from where we needed to be. I called the house and they told me they don’t handle the financial aspects. 24 hours later still no response and even after an email we had no response. We would appreciate our full refund as we did not even have the place booked for up to 10 minutes it was almost an immediate cancellation.
