Anne's place was nice but after driving 6 hours to get there we didn't want to go back out to get salt/pepper, ice, soap for a shower. These are all things provided when you stay at AirBNB in the states. We went to the local store to get coffee, (they were sold out), went to the bar to get ice, (they didn't have anything to put it in, or so they said). We didn't want to drive to the next town to get these things, Anne did provide salt/pepper and coffee after I told her of our dilemma, which was wonderful, and an ice tray which we filled and waited two hours for it to make hard ice, it just seems like these things should have already been there. The washer/dryer didn't work properly, after doing one load, some of the items were soaking wet and others items were not wet at all. Anne came over and started a new load for us but it was the same thing, too wet or not even wet at all. We had to dry everything on the clothes line which took 4 + hours because things were so soaked when they came out. The dryer didn't dry anything. We didn't come to Ireland to watch the clothes dry.
We left two days early because we felt to isolated from things. I was hoping because of all the problems Anne might split the difference and only charge us for 3 days but she charged us for all 4. Anne was very nice, as were all the people we met in Ireland.
I admit we get a little spoiled being from the states and wanting everything like we have there, ice maker in the fridge so ice is always at your disposal, little bars of soap for each bathroom, left over coffee and salt/pepper from the previous guest or provided by owner, hot water ready to go, not having to turn on switches and let things heat up, but, this seemed a little less ready for guests than some of the other places we stayed. I hope she will get the washer/dryer looked at or she will have more complaints from guests who aren't used to these units.
