Journey on Wild Atlantic Way
It would be helpful if the Eircode system was explained to guests. The listing has the house as peach while it is actually white. It’s a tight road up to the property for those of you used to wider roads. Please check the items guests need to comply with checkout requirements. Some items were not available in order to leave the home as clean and neat as we found it. Americans will find the instant on showers puzzling. Instructions to all the appliances would be very helpful. Beautiful views from the front door! Clifden is a beautiful little town with Lowrys which is an outstanding pub for local music and an involved clientele.

Beautiful location, unacceptable conditions in the house
Please find our feedback on House 427 in Clifden. We were able to enter the house easily with provided info. The location is very nice. However the conditions of the house leaves much to be desired. Having an oil heater in the kitchen is unacceptable, especially with small children and the constant emissions. It is impossible to cook in there. Additionally, the water from the kitchen faucet tastes kerosene and cannot be used. The bathrooms are also in a dilapidated state. The closets have a very musty smell and it is impossible to store clothing. Furthermore, the dishes are haphazardly put together. Being without a functional kitchen is truely a hardship for a family. Coming from Kerry with a superb accomodation, we are very disappointed here, and the price-performance ratio is defintely not right. Foshare thiHCarolin

Haus o k
Leider ist bei der Ankunft am Abend 8 Grad die Heizung komplett ausgestellt gewesen. Keine Anleitung wie diese überhaupt in Betrieb genommen wird. Das Haus STINKT nach Öl. Die gesamte Zeit. Man kann aber die Küchentür nicht schließen, da dort die Heizung eingebaut ist und die Luft darin dann unerträglich. Es ist aber der Raum, in dem man sich aufhält zum Essen, spielen etc. Küchenausstattung ist grauenvoll. Kein Topf der für 6 Personen reicht. Dreckiges Geschirr, Töpfe. Wäschetrockner voll Wasser, Flusensieb nicht geleert. Leider wurden diese Mängel schon öfter beanstandet. Jedoch ändert sich nichts. Die Möbel sind schon sehr abgeranzt. Teilweise kaputt. Die Matratzen im 2 Bett Zimmer sind sehr abgenutzt. Schade ist, dass es keine Terrasse gibt auf der Man sich gemütlich hinsetzen könnte. Es gibt zwar 4 Stühle und ein Tisch die einfach vor das Hahs abgestellt wurden. Man muss sich diese aber erst da hinschleppen wo sie benötigt werden. Das Dusch Bad im OG ist unbeheizt. Die angegebene qm Zahl kann nicht richtig sein. Das Haus ist mit 6 Personen sehr beengt. Die Lage ist traumhaft. Die Nähe zu Clifden auch super.

Can do better...
Let's start with the positives: the house is located in a very quiet location, surrounded by pastures with sheep and horses. The rooms in the house offer sufficient space. The quality/price ratio is correct. However, what bothered us greatly throughout the stay was the very persistent smell of oil emitted by the heating system in the kitchen. There must be a leak somewhere that needs to be repaired as soon as possible. In addition, the level of facilities offered in the house is no longer up to the mark, especially in the bathrooms. Everything is made with the cheapest materials. A pity because the house has a certain potential.

Herrliche Aussicht
Tolles und extrem sauberes Cottage, spektakuläre Aussicht über das Moor bis zum Meer. Für einen Ausflug nach Clifden (tolle Pubs mit Live-Musik) braucht man allerdings das Auto. Unangenehm war, dass bei unserer Ankunft die Heizung aus war und innen einstellige Temperaturen herrschten. Ansonsten alles tiptop, sehr empfehlenswert.

Entspannung
Die Abwicklung ist sehr anonym, bei Privaten Anbietern findet eine freundliche Kommunikation statt. Der Trockner war nicht gesäubert, auch das Kondenswasser nicht entleert. Der Kondensator, wo kein Wasser rein darf, war voll. Die Waschmaschine dreckig, insbesondere das Waschmittelfach . Gewaschene Wäsche roch nicht gut. Wenn man den Geschirrspüler genutzt hat, lief das Wasser in dem Spülbecken hoch. Somit war man gezwungen dabei zu bleiben . Keine Information für die Mülltrennung, was kommt wo rein. Haus war nicht vorgewärmt, kaltes Haus. Im Obergeschoss, befinden sich zwei Räume, die nicht erwähnt werden und verschlossen sind, macht eine komische Atmosphäre. Vorm Hintereingang ein Eimer und Mop mit dreckigen Putzwasser. Die Betten sind super, bis auf die zwei getrennten Betten, da spürte meine Tochter die Federn sehr. Wenn ich ein Haus buche und zwölf Tage verbleibe, warum bekomme ich nur ein Geschirrtuch? Die Internetverbindung war super, der Kamin zog gut ab. Was wir auch gut fanden, ein Smart TV war auch vorhanden, welcher auch gut funktioniert. Es benötigt vielleicht ein bisschen mehr Aufmerksamkeit und Liebe zum Detail. Kann man machen, sind es aber durch privat Anbieter anders gewohnt.
