Need a good refresh

Wasn't our best stay... nice water view but the building and rooms need a refresh and good cleaning. Noices from the road and parties. Food and breakfast are ok.

Bnb with lovely waterviews. Comfy beds. Good breakfast. Shower was tepid at best. Heater was difficult to work, kept turning off. It was an unusually cold night so would have liked a bit better heat. Nice staff.

Bed was comfortable, but the hotel felt a bit rundown. Service was sketchy, you didn't really feel welcome. But it's easy to get to and from.

The staff were lovely. There is a hotel shuttle into town which is convenient as the town is close but not walking distance. I did not like the 6pm check in but knew that in advance. The grounds are lovely with a gurgling stream feeding into a lake. It’s very picturesque and worth a late check in.

Surprised us in a good way

Loved it! To be honest we didn’t expect a ton because the price was so reasonable but we were blown away! The rooms were comfortable, the bar / restaurant was cute and the food was good. We happened to be there on learn to dance night and we had a blast! We stayed at the hotel bar and chatted to the bar tender for a long time, she has worked there 22 years and was an amazing person!

Lack of hot water

I really enjoyed my stay. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Only catch: there was no hot water the last evening of my stay. It was the bank holiday weekend in August and the person capable of handling the situation was not available. Not so good.

The hotel needs renovating but it wouldn’t take much to get it back to glory . Our room was lovely with a huge window overlooking a really pretty lawn onto the River. The restaurant wasn’t operating but the bar staff really accommodating for us to bring take away to it . The breakfast , included , was great and the breakfast chef lovely .Glengarriff is a much better option for cute pubs and cafes but Ouvane Falls was very cheap so I’d recommend for a different experience .

We booked our “sea view” rooms three months in advance, while upon arrival the staff was surprised saying “you have one room”. After we demonstrated our receipt, wow, what a surprise - “we cannot find the key deem the second room”… we got the noisiest room, looking at the crossroad. In the morning, during check out two ladies and their assistant were not able to make the credit card machine functioning during 40 minutes
