"Absolutely wonderful experience. The location couldn't be beat, Cafes and pubs on the doorstep. The breakfast fry was plentyful and the continental breakfast fresh. The hostesses could not have been more helpful nor friendly. The rooms were spacious, warm and wonderfully comfy. All of this with beautiful decor made it an unbeatable stay :^)"
"Perfect location. Beautiful room. Lovely shower facilities too. The ladies were so friendly and cooked us a big delicious breakfast."
"We spend just one night, the room was small but clean, the stuff very friendly and the breakfast was as well fine. We would stay again there."
"An absolute awful experience. To start off myself and my cousin shared a room and we paid over 100 euro each so that was over 200 for 2 nights and we got a tiny room with 1 single bed and 1 double bed. The room did not match the pictures and paying that price we should have got 2 double beds as our friend was staying in the other room and paid 160 for 2 nights and had a double bed. They never changed our towels and I asked them twice, and there was tea in the room but no milk. We came back the first night and decided to have tea but there was no milk so we couldn’t. Then here comes the best part - we missed breakfast the first morning so nothing was said, the second morning we were a few minutes late- I asked nicely if I could have something hot for my drive back to Cavan as we had been out the night before and they knew that. I got the most nasty smart reply and to eat some fruit, for paying that price I couldn’t believe the rudeness. So then I said in fairness the price we paid and you can’t even throw us on an egg. There was four of them there clearing up and bare in mine it was not busy either. Then another owner a younger woman came in roaring at me, I have never been disrespected so badly in my life I was in shock. Our friend also advised us the breakfast was awful anyway as there was practically nothing on the plate, but that is besides the point where is the decency in people gone? Just out to take your money and that is it. I will never stay here again when I visit birr. Manners goes a long way and these have none as well as bad service."
