On the positive side: The host couple is very, very friendly and the Irish breakfast is delicious. I loved the Irish soda bread so the hostess made sure she had fresh bread each day, even if it meant making a special trip to town to get it from a good bakery. On the less positive side, you can only book a double room (there are no "single" accommodations) and even if you are a single, you pay the price of a double room.
The location is quite far out (near GMIT, approximately 2km from the center?) so travelers without their own car need to plan on taking a bus or taxi to the center. For travelers with their own car, it's no problem. It's a small town and there are no traffic jams (except maybe when driving out to Salthill near the beach on a holiday weekend, on the other side of town.)
