This place is amazing! Everything in the hostel is so lovely and looks like there's a lot of love that goes into it. There's a community kitchen where you can cook yourself a meal. There are separate bins for the different kinds of trash (plastic, organic, ...) which we thought was great! The shared living room is very cozy and decorated lovely. Stephen is the perfect host, very welcoming, helpful and super friendly. We stayed in the waterfall hut and we felt so comfortable sleeping right next to the waterfall.
In the morning we had a nice breakfast with everybody. The atmosphere in the hostel is amazing, everybody is so nice! The hostel is right next to the Connemara visitors center, where the mountain trail starts.
We definitely fell in love with the place and would love to come back! I would highly recommend to stay there if you want to visit the Connemara national park!!
