Longford Lodge Guest House

Unusual set up with self registration as no staff on site. Room was clean though road noise is constant. Breakfast room was pleasant but you have to prepare your own and no cooker so only continental available. Some upgrading needed but ideal for a quick stop over for a night. Don't expect 4 star luxury although this is classed as 3 star hostel not hotel it's more like a 2 star.

We were allocated a twin room, however 1 bed was a camp bed, complete with a dead fly inside the bed. Television was unwatchable due to the fact it was suspended on top of a wardrobe in an alcove and could only be watched from a standing position towards the back wall. Shower managed hot burts in between freezing cold episodes, which managed to flood the bathroom floor. We didn't bother with breakfast. In hindsight, the fly had the bests nights sleep.

Me and 4 other contractors stayed hear for 4 nights. The crack is they leave your key in a secure box at the front and you sort of check yourself in and do as you please so don't expect anybody to there, not that it bothered me. There's a kitchen with everything accept an oven you can use and a tv room, you put your dirty pots in a droor and like magic theve been cleaned the next day. Its basic accommodation so if you're on a luxury adventure do don't start crying when everything is not perfect but I've stayed in alot worse so to be honest I would recommend.
