My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were top quality with a very comfy bed, plenty of space, and a lovely view from the window. The only downside was the room temperature that started a bit chilly. The service was very good, although some staff members were not overly friendly. The location was excellent, just a stone's throw from the beach and right in the middle of the village. The dining experience was hot, fresh, and plentiful. The facilities were great, offering everything I needed for a pleasant stay.

The hotel offers basic but clean and good value rooms with charming cat pictures on the walls. While the rooms are a bit small, they provide a cozy atmosphere. The TV channels might be limited, and the distance from the lift could be inconvenient at times. The service is exceptional, with staff members going above and beyond to ensure guests have a successful and enjoyable stay. The location is superb, just a stone's throw away from the white sands beach in Co Kerry. The dining experience serves delicious cooked-to-order meals with a variety of choices to satisfy different cravings. The facilities are well-maintained and offer everything needed for a pleasant stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the room was tiny and had old-fashioned wallpaper with cat pictures, the service was lacking in friendliness. On the upside, the location was excellent, close to the beach, offering good value for a budget break.
