Disliked: Cleanliness
Not satisfactory
We arrived later than we thought we would and there was no outdoor lighting, nor was there any available. The house was very grubby, with dust and cobwebs everywhere. The kitchen in general was lacking cleanliness - sink accessories (brush, dishcloth etc) were disgusting! The handles and cupboard doors felt sticky, and made the whole place feel generally unclean. Outside the back door, where the bins are located was dirty, bin full of flies and rubbish. It was also quite dangerous as there is a lot of moss on the ground which was slippery from the rain. A large cabinet has a drawer front which isn't attached to anything, so could fall out very easily, especially dangerous if you have young children! There wasn't enough cutlery for the guests. The TV in the dining area has no signal and the wifi is almost non existent! The beds are very hard and uncomfortable. A window in one bedroom upstairs doesn't close properly so there is a lot of wind & moisture that comes through it, as well as the noise from the waterfall across the road. We did, however, enjoy our stay in Clifden and the surrounding area, which is stunning.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Totally Impersonal
We found the house dirty: food left in the fridge and in the shelves. Freezer in mini fridge had about 5” of frost. Open bag of peas and a carton of ice cream in the freezer. Several empty soda cans left on counters. Beds super hard and uncomfortable. Tiles in bathroom upstairs not attached. Utility room filthy and filled with construction materials. Black bags for towels were nowhere to be found. And we have NEVER had to follow so many directions or take bottles to the recycling building! Stains on carpets upstairs. Shower doors not cleaned well. No notice about steep driveway which hurt the car nor directions about how to lock the door from the inside. Given the money we paid, the lack of concern from property management was supremely disappointing.

Waterfall View
Lovely house ideal for large party. Decor and furniture tired and in need of updating (adjacent similar property appears to have been thoroughly refurbished). Lovely location and convenient for all facilities in Clifden. Clifden itself is an ideal centre for exploring this beautiful part of Ireland. Property manager very helpful when needed.

Perfect location in western Ireland
Multi bedroom home is in the perfect location for visiting western Ireland. Just a few minutes walk from downtown Clifden with plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants.

Comfortable house, great location.
Great location, spacious house. Towels provided which was an unexpected bonus. Decor is a little tired, needs emulsion to most walls. A mirror over the main bedroom dressing table would have been useful. A little patio set outside would be nice to enjoy the views. Beds were comfortable and house smelt fresh and clean on arrival. Would recommend a stay here.
