I didn't get to meet Lorraine but Jimmy was incredibly helpful and welcoming. He told me where to go to replace some things until my lost luggage showed up and how to get there. Due to flight delays I only got one night instead of two but I had a lovely time. There's lovely live music at the pubs walking distance a few minutes down the road and getting to the Cliffs of Moher and Aran Islands was super easy. Jimmy made me an excellent fresh breakfast in the morning as I set off for a full day. It was ready to go at the time I'd requested prepared just as I'd ordered the night before. Note that the old building is a bit squeaky and the doors are a bit loud (as older buildings generally are) so if you have a heavy step you may feel like you're disturbing the rest of the guests.
