This hotel is in a great location right on the harbor. The woman who met us and served breakfast to us was AWESOME. Had a lovely conversation with her at breakfast. And breakfast was great. That said, these positives could not over come the EXTREMELY TINY room we had. Our room had no view of the harbor, we could barely open the bathroom door because it hit the bed. Airplane bathrooms are bigger, and the shower was shoehorned into a closet. The staircase was so narrow it was difficult dragging out bags up the stairs. Ugghhh

Tiny

Room was very, very small. Not possible to lay a standard carry on size suitcase on the floor and still be able to walk around bed. Toilet and shower were in tiny separate closets. No hot water in shower one morning.

Lovely, small hotel right on the marina in the very nice town of Dingle. No lift, so getting the suitcases up the very small staircase was a challenge, but not a big problem. Very nice staff person at check in. Street parking.

View was great. Room was nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, in one of our rooms the toilet required flushing at least 5 times per flush to empty the bowl for the entire time we were there (2 nights).
