Lough Derg Tours

A very ok hostel. The first pod we got assigned smelled like urine, so we brought it up to the manager and they were able to assign us a different one. The usb ports in our pod did not work and this seemed like a common issue. I heard multiple other people complaining about this to reception. The "kitchen" is not a kitchen at all. Just a microwave, kettle, and panini press. There was 1 bowl, 2 plates, a couple sets of silverware and a handful of mugs to use, but no sink, so you had to take any dishes upstairs to the bathrooms to wash them. And there were only 3 bathrooms for the whole facility, each one with a toilet and shower, so in the morning and evening it was common to have to wait a very long time for any toilet to be available. The showers were quite good once you got one, and the beds were comfy at least. TL;DR, VERY lacking in facilities, but a cheap convenient place to stay.

Great staff, large rooms and nice breakfast.

Room was adequately equipped, warm enough and clean though a bit small. Shower was good and bed was comfy. A proper coffee machine would have been good. Breakfast was adequate. Good to see plant-based milks available.
