    My wife was not happy as there was no heat in the room although the weather was very warm. A hot water bottle would have sufficed. There was also no tea making kettle available which would have helped. We had come from a wedding and were a little late 9pm I had left a message on the phone and had tried to ring earlier without success.

    The room was comfortable, and we had a basic breakfast which what we wanted. Every thing was very clean

    4 bed room was exactly that: a room cramped with 4 beds and nothing else. Very tight, wall closet was almost inaccessible. Shower has a boiler, water pressure was OK.

    Very quiet, 5-room private home. Host was super friendly and accommodating. Breakfast for €10 was of very good quality, choice of warm breakfast. Very clean. 15min walk downtown. Parking in the front yard.

    For excellence it would be nice to have wider access to tea, coffee. Kitchen was locked overnight so no access to drinks until 8am. Difficult if interrupted sleep & needing a drink. Unfortunately the people in the room above us were awake & constantly on the move from about 6-7.30 am. It was not possible to sleep. Blackout blinds would be fantastic.

    It was a very clean set up. Host was very friendly and helpful.

    Our hostess was a gem; so welcoming & personable; on arrival we were greeted with a cup of tea & biscuits. We had the bedroom by the front door & driveway which was perfect. Our breakfasts were excellent and plentiful. The weather was pretty miserable but the home feeling of the house made us welcome. We were given good suggestions re dining out & listening to traditional Irish music (be there on a Thursday night!)

    Comfortable family room with good facilities. Irene was very welcoming. Close to the town centre (10-15min walk) with food and pubs. The room was quiet and there was an area in the kitchen to make tea/coffee and sandwiches if you were out for the day. Nice to have a bed each (double and 2 single) even if it is a little cosy. Great location for exploring the north Antrim coast

    I was in the downstairs bedroom and I could hear everyone that moved upstairs. It was also possible to hear the voices of others in the downstairs rooms. It was impossible to have an early night due to the noise of people coming and going. Also, it would have been easier to either include breakfast in price or accept a card payment.

    The room was very clean and owner was very helpful when I arrived early. It was nice to have a range of toiletries available for use. It was a twin room but I stayed by myself. It might be quite tight for 2. The breakfast service was very efficient and tasty.
