Aileen’s space was as advertised. We had a cancellation at last minute and they fit us in. Seamus was a wonderful host. We felt most comfortable in their bed and breakfast. Breakfast was simple - toast and cereal. About a mile from town- you can walk to town. Bedrooms were comfortable and their two dogs and cat were adorable and friendly. And the town of Athlone itself quite wonderful. The castle museum was informative and well organized.
Plus we had a few pints at the oldest pub in the world. That’s worth something. Fond memories of Athlone and Seamus set the tone. Cheers.
