The main reason I chose to stay at Cyril's place was because of the super reviews about him as a host. I certainly was not disappointed. Cyril attracts some interesting guests to his house and in this regard it made conversations with other guests over breakfast quite delightful, however the real star is Cyril himself who should be awarded a honorary doctorate in Irish history. He is a highly intellectual and fascinating man but besides that Cyril is a genuine and exceedingly hospitable human being and, although some bathroom upgrading is overdue , I consider meeting his acquaintance him a highlight of my month long trip to Ireland.
