Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We booked the hotel due to food being served, when we arrived there was no food during the week and only at weekend which was not reflected on the website. Room was not as described, very small, en-suite had mould all in shower, ceiling and it was dirty. ( see photos below ). Bed was damp, cold, springs had gone in mattress, room smelt of damp, was cold, carpet dirty very worn and overall the room was dirty. Carpets in the hallway was dirty and worn, needs to be updated and some money spent in the whole living area. Overall the drive to the inn is not worth it, if you are a nervous driver do not go as the roads are very narrow, hairpin bends, single track roads and there is a lot of better inn/ hotels around and for a lot less money. I cannot understand how this inn can charge this amount of money for a one night stay. I would never stay at this inn again.

Uniqueness and location. Convenience of the pub in the first floor was nice after hours of sightseeing. Used it as a hub for the ring of Kerry.

Difficult to reach location as it’s in a beautiful area of Glencar, a tiny village up the mountains. Staff were exceptionally warm and friendly and went above and beyond.
