The place was reasonably clean (apart from crumbs on the sofas and a considerable quantity of flies/mozzies throughout the apartment) and our first impressions were generally favourable. We thought we'd found the perfect place to stopover on our regular business trips to the south of Ireland but then we started to find some basic but very important flaws which would certainly cause us to never stay there again. The bed, although clean, was very uncomfortable and gave us a very poor nights sleep, with backache to follow in the morning. The shower was unusable. The shower head looked like it was handmade from some galvanised metal container with tiny little pinpricks to let out the water. This meant the water sprayed everywhere in very fine jets which were unbearable. We had to use the bath instead. Cold tap on wash hand basin didn't work. Considering this is marketed as a premium facility (costing us almost £150 for one night), if the basic amenities of a good bed and a good shower cannot be provided, then it is best avoided. It's such a shame as it is such a lovely place in very tranquil, scenic surroundings and has so much going for it, but yet still hasn't got the basic comforts nailed.
