I wish all B&Bs were just like the Bastian. The building is historic with tons of character, well decorated with exotic antiques, and is extremely well located which always makes a solo female traveler feel safe. The room was beyond spotless, and the bed/bedding was very soft, clean and comfortable. Anthony even went out of his way and helped me get creative to find a way to get Clonmacnoise monastic site, about 30 minutes from the B&B by car (and I didn’t have a car, and the Viking boat tour was booked). I am so appreciative! And also highly recommend the Bastian Kitchen across the street. 5 million stars. I hope to stay there again!
