A great charming place. Full of character. It is cosy and warm. We did not get an ensuite as all was already booked but the shared bathroom was perfect. The room was very clean and comfy. I loved the common area, you really just want to pick up a book and enjoy the space while sipping your tea. Lots of pubs nearby. And a great bookstore to refill your library. Look not further, this is the place to stay in Athlone.
