Hans and his wife's place is lovely. It's close to downtown Carrick-on-Shannon (about half an hour walking, but Hans has a bike you can use, there are bike paths the whole way there and it's only about 10 minutes on bike). It's clean, safe, you have your own bathroom, and most of all Hans and his wife are wonderful people. They're incredibly nice and generous, and happy to share knowledge about the local area. If you're lucky enough to get breakfast from them as well, it's absolutely delicious. I felt like I was in great hands. One of the best air bnb's I've stayed in.
