Summary: The room was clean and well maintained. This was the only place I felt comfortable walking around in socks instead of my slippers. If I was a barefoot person, I would have gone barefoot. It was dim and I found out later it's just what they do as an energy saving measure. The room was warm (no A/C) but we were able to open the window for some fresh cool air while we slept. There was a hairdryer and other amenities. Shampoo was provided and thankfully, not combined with body wash. The shower needs more water pressure (rinsing my hair took forever) and the drain is slow. Bathroom sink narrow (toothbrush for reference). There was a lighted vanity mirror in the bathroom but due to electrical problems, sadly it didn't work. I put my makeup on near the window for some light. Maybe a battery operated mirror? Breakfast was not included in the price which is weird for us (in the US a B&B includes breakfast). It was good food and cooked to order. There was music pumped into the dining room and different music wafted in from the kitchen. It was a bit of sensory overload. I recommend the same music for both!

Summary: We had a great stay here, everything was spotlessly clean and well appointed.
Our breakfast was plentiful, tasty and cooked to order.
I would highly recommend a stay here and would not hesitate in booking again.

Summary: Room was clean and cosy. The breakfast was lovely I would recommend the traditional Irish breakfast. The host was so friendly and helpful with our travels! Would absolutely stay here again!! The dapper duck was and excellent pub to eat at as well! It was a very short walk for supper.

Summary: Very average. The small double bed & noisy road made the stay uncomfortable. Also the room was very warm.

Summary: Host neither welcoming nor helpful, I needed transportation into the next town and all I got was a card with a phone number and the words 'probably he won't do it because it's a part time taxi and he works early...'
Be aware Gurteen is a town where the last bus is at 9 pm, no taxi service and even Uber bailed 5 min before the requested time (23h30) - so a car is an absolute obligation!
Regarding the room, I really don't know what laundry detergent is used in this B&B but upon getting into the room the smell was so strong, it gave me a headache, which was a pity since the mattress was quite good...
Overall a very disappointing experience.
