I would recommend Anthony's place because I felt very comfortable there, such a cool place with nice character in the decoration, lovely homely touches like the biscuit jar and Barry's tea in the kitchen. I stayed in the loft room and the little balcony was lovely to sit out on. It was clean and smelled nice and the bed was comfy. Absolutely would prefer this room over the hotel room I stayed in the night before. The location made my holiday more relaxing. Everything in walking distance. The host was very nice to chat to with any information I needed as it was my first time in athlone. I will definitely stay again when I return to athlone.
