The room was spacious and very comfortable. It was right above the bar and charming street.That was fine until in the wee hours and people gathered outside to socialize before going home - in a way it added to the atmosphere but if sleeping is your main goal bring earplugs.

Fuss-free stay in Carndonagh

No fuss, no frills accommodation, exactly what was required for our stay. Very large, comfortable beds, easy check-in and out from friendly staff. Full use of excellent gym, pool and all facilities at nearby Ballyliffin Lodge. Ample free parking on High St. Would recommend and re-visit.

To check in we had to make our way through 50 drunk 18 year olds to the bar. Then drag our suitcases up the stairs to reach a small room. When I originally booked through Expedia the property's name was Joyce's Bed and Breakfast, but they serve no food whatsoever. The noisy guests downstairs could be heard from our room and I was afraid of leaving our rental car on the street with all of the drunk people wandering around.

The room was spacious, 2 king size beds which were very comfy. We have an adult son with special needs and isn't independent, the room was exactly what we needed. Each day we returned to find our beds made up and clean towels. Very clean and the staff very friendly. Just be aware there is no food available at this property but there are tea and coffee available in the room.

Situated conveniently in the center of town. Restaurant a couple doors down which served dinner until 8, which was good due to our later arrival. Diamond Cafe across the Diamond was great for breakfast. Opens at 8:30 am. Check-in was easy; just got the keys at the bar and the hostess showed us the room. Street parking was easy and free. We based here to explore the northernmost part of Donegal.

A bit noisy in the evenings, because boy racers go around in the middle of the town and we could hear all, other then that very good for the price.
