Having lived in the US for 30 years, whenever we are home our favourite thing to do is to get out and explore, staying in B&Bs and getting great tips from the hosts for food, sight-seeing and hiking off the beaten paths.
This was not that. We notified them in advance that we would likely arrive after hours (tough to predict when you travel 8,500 km in 22 hours.) We made great time from Dublin, but apparently it was a major inconvenience for them when we arrived within office hours. The host was cranky and rude and we did not appreciate what I assume was the “American special” when he told us we would pay €50 in town for a full Irish so we should give him €10 for a continental breakfast. Actual cost of full Irish was €10 - 14.
The room smelled like old wet carpet (room opens directly to outside with nowhere to ditch wet boots/coats) The toilet seat was gross and promptly replaced upon request.
Never ever again.
Added 1 star for great location.
