linda, andy, and their daughter laura are very friendly, helpful and welcoming. their rooms are clean and functional. it's located quite conveniently if travelling by car, but a short hike if hoofing it. it's not the largest hostel i've ever been in, but it's a fair size, and when a full house is up, it gets rocking, late into the... more

However, upon arrival Linda was great, showing us our room and where everything was and recommending a place to eat in Donegal. Our private room was spacious and had an ensuite shower room with a toilet and... more

Friendly, spacious and brilliant value for money. We stayed in an ensuite double room that would put many hotels to shame. The cost? 38 euro for two people per night. Scooby the dog is a star as is the 3 month old kitten. Highly recommended. more

Nice hostess and her friendly dog. Good kitchen supplies. Adequate sitting room with cozy fire. Clean bathroom facilities (shared). Warm enough rooms. Private bunkbed room - older bunkbeds with piece of board laid between the springs and mattress in attempt to keep level. Even with board, bed is on a slant. Without the board, springs have a definite low spot... more

fantastic hostel just out of town (about 15mins walk). lovely spacious place with a wonderful lady called Linda running the place. Linda and her family will make you feel so at home, and she always has some great stories to tell. Oh and I can't forget Scooby!!!!! I think every hostel should have a dog like Scooby. There's room for... more
