"Services to be improved…"

4.0

The main advantage is the geographical location which allows for easy access to various excursions.

The first real disappointment of all the hotels I stayed in this past week. The services are really not up to the standards of the prices charged.

"Great location, great staff"

10.0

I had a wonderful stay at Arnolds, a very centrallly located hotel, nestled in the stunning scenic village of Dunfanaghy. Rooms were lovely and clean, and the view of the bay, was very special. Staff were very helpful with a particular mentioned to Kathy, Hazel & Laura, who made the stay all the much better. A wonderful local hotel with great service and close to amenities.
