No breakfast, the kitchen was not clean at all.. The bedroom was really small and not really clean I even found a dead spider on my bed. he bed not really comfortable. We can't take a shower unless we payed more for it (some euros for 5 min under the water). And no wifi for internet in the bedroom. A... More

A great little hostel with friendly, helpful managers. A Quiet Man was filmed in Cong. I was there out of season - so missed the nightly movie screenings, but you can borrow the DVD - so you don't leave town without the experience ! Loads of great walks in town, from The Abbey and around the castle. Back door entrance... More

We had a twin private room. It was basic but ok for a couple of nights. The bathroom looked like it had fairly new fittings, and it was clean. The bed sheets looked old and tired, but seemed freshly washed. The kitchen is large and quite well equipped, although everything is old. If you are traveling alone I think you... More

We brought our caravan to the quiet man hostel and camping park last weekend. It's a small site, located beside Ashford castle and cong village. The site is well kept, well drained making it more ideal for tents, it seemed to have ample kitchen and eating facilities which we did not use. Toilets were clean albeit a little old fashioned....

Hostel is just what it is suppoosed to be plus you get a chance to see the film of The quiet man - which is still the reason for some visitors after half of the century since it was filmed in nearby Cong. Margaret and her husband Garry are so nice and helpfull. Garry knows everythig about film and film... More

Margaret (Owner) could not have been more helpful to us last weekend, which was a group of almost 30 people altogether. The hostel is basic but does what it says on the tin. The bed-sheets were clean when we arrived which is all I ask for from a hostel. I had a walk around the building and the kitchen was... More

Stayed in this with my wife. We had a double room in this hostel which is currently up for sale. It's obvious the owners are not really interested in maintaining it properly. Let's just say that the bedsheets were very unhygenic. Take my advice - check out the hotels in the area that will offer much better value for money.... More
