"We loved our stay. It was a great location right in the heart of Kenmare. The only thing I would change is that it did get hot in the room at night. We wanted to leave the curtains open to allow for a breeze from the open windows but there is a bright light on the outside of the building that shines right into your eyes while in bed. You have to choose between being too hot or having a bright shining light in your eyes."
