Location was just perfect for us. It is a easy 10 min walk from the train station. Everything was extremely close by - pubs, shopping, convenient store. The apartment was as in photos - it was larger than expected so we had plenty of room. The washing machine was great for a small load and we used a hanging rack to dry the clothes. We rented bikes next door to the apartment from Cathal - the ride through the National park was wonderful. Also did the boat ride through the lakes and then biked back to town- be warned that this ride involves biking up a mountain in the gap of Dunloe and then back down the other side of the mountain.
