Rabbit's warren

We were upgraded to a room with a Donegal bay view. The size of the room was adequate but we were 3 guests & they only had towels, cups etc for 2 people. It was quiet and the front desk staff were helpful. The hotel is laid out in a circular formation & it is hard to find your way in or out.
