This place is a great location for checking out all that Killarney has to offer. We ventured out from here to do ring of Kerry as well as Killarney national park, and it is right in the heart of downtown, so lots of options for shopping/eating as well. There is street noise, but it never bothered us. Check in was easy and Odel even checked in on us a few times to make sure we were getting on ok. She is a fabulous host!
