    Perfect charming inn, close to the Cliffs of Moher

    The water was a little bit cold and the heating took a minute to warm the rom up. Easily solvable problems but I had to mention them because I have nothing bigger! Our stay was wonderful!

    This is the most charming little inn you could imagine. The building is made of river stone and is gorgeous! The location is within a few minutes' drive from the Cliffs of Moher and within a few minutes' walk from a few pubs. It has a charming fireplace inside and the rooms are nice and clean. Great value for money!

    Missing breakfast, as we slept in. Bed too cosy.

    Easy check in for a wedding reception in Hotel Doolin. The bed was soo comfortable, we'll return one day, just to get another cosy sleep in.

    The Internet was quite bad and because we had a separate entrance we had to walk a shirt distance outside to the shower... because we had a really rainy and windy night that was not so nice.

    The shower requires you hit a button and you only get a few seconds of water, so we had to coordinate so the water could run a bit more continuously (I stood outside the shower and hit the button multiple times) , Also, with students staying there it was a bit noisy and sounds echo'd. But still, it was very affordable so it was a fair trade-off.

    Affordable for one night

    The room barely fit the beds, but we knew that from the photos when we booked. The bathroom got quite wet when anyone showered. The mattresses were not very comfortable.

    Aille River Hostel is a picturesque hostel not too far from the Cliffs of Moher. It is close to several dining options. The price was right!

    The vibe was off. The host is friendly but only acknowledged us if we specifically spoke to her. She was very polite when we asked her a specific question but that was it.

    Beautiful place and location. Very clean.

    Clean, well-equipped hostel.

    The attitude of the receptionist: We booked months in advance for an expensive family room as it was the only option for a Saturday night in Doolin. We had to catch the morning ferry to the Aran Islands and were happy to pay the premium. However we were a bit taken aback to be criticized for overpaying for our requirements. I had checked direct and they were not showing any availability for twin/doubles for a one night stay, so to be told we shouldn't have gone via B.com was a bit disingenuous given that we wouldn't have found them in the first place without the app. It's not as if we'd asked for discount and they were happy to take the money. And if towels are included for the price, don't offer them begrudgingly!

    Clean hostel with good kitchen facilities. Well-located for short walk into Doolin and for catching ferry to Aran Islands.

    The internet was a bit slack, and there was a few spiders in my bunk bed but nothing I couldn't handle.

    The breakfast was super and great value for money, the kitchen was so clean and everything you needed was there. The staff were friendly and super helpful. And the location was great.
