Noise from the pub next door and the street.

We enjoyed talking with Michael. Breakfast was good.

The carpets do need replacing, mainly the stairs, landing and the breakfast room.

The host Michael, very chatty and helpful. Our room and bathroom was nice and clean and acceptable. There was a good breakfast too.

There is a bar two doors down that had a live band playing the night we were there. It was quite loud, didn't bother us but it may bother some people. We were on the second floor facing the street, so I'd imagine most of the other rooms would be quieter. If you're travelling through Ireland, I'd recommend bringing ear plugs along with you, as the streets are rarely quiet at night! :)

I think many of the reviewers of the Anchorage are unfairly equating "old" with "dirty." Yes, it is a very old building and there are elements that could use an update, but our room was spotless, very spacious and comfortable, and smelled fresh and clean. Michael was incredibly kind, friendly and accommodating, and you can tell he puts a lot of meticulous care into every aspect of the hotel, from the cleanliness of the rooms to the delicious breakfast. It is excellent value for the price! Also, the location is perfectly central and there is parking directly across the street!

Noise from the road and especially the takeaway pizza shop very close by whose noisy customers kept us awake until the early hours. The guest house decor has seen better days and needs some tlc.

Good parking availability. Friendly helpful host.

I will attempt to be honest. The room is definitely not up to the standard that most people expect in hotels these days. Don’t expect the Ritz Carleton here, but do consider the price and convenience. Yeah, the carpet is shot, the windows are dirty, the beds are old and creaky, the paint is dowdy, there are no pictures on the walls, there is no furniture (except for the wardrobe that prevents the door from opening fully!). I don’t think there is a/c, but the windows do open. Quite a bit of traffic noise however. We actually had quite a laugh over the creaky bed springs and floors.

Michael, the host, and all the staff are great! Breakfast was tasty, made fresh, served up in a nice bright room. The location was good, with a convenient paid parking lot directly across the street. Tully’s bar, a great pub, is just around the corner. Bathroom was modern and well equipped; everything functioned well. Sheets were clean with no sign of unwelcome pests.

It was very dated and carpets were hardly there!

It was comfortable and clean. The breakfast was good.

Room 201 had a bad shower drain, but Michael promised to fix it. The room windows overlook the road, there is a pub nearby. So until late at night you could hear the pub visitors, and from the very morning they were taking out empty beer barrels, it was really very loud.

Very friendly staff. Michael was very friendly. I also enjoyed talking to the Ukrainian women who work there. Delicious breakfast. The location was perfect. You can park your car in front of the hotel (12 euros per day).

Smell of cigarette smoke in the room esp in the landing outside the door. Not sure where it was coming from but it was powerful. We kept the window open and our door closed and that helped a little but it really detracted from our enjoyment.

Location, price, friendly staff, comfy beds

Excellent breakfast Walking distance for sightseeing Friendly host

It was cold in the bedroom because of some problem with the heating system, it was working in a bathroom only. There is no a table and a chair but it is not so important as heating. You can have some breakfast at 08.30 only, not earlier.

A room was very clean, especially a bed, a renovated modern bathroom. A bedroom was big enough.
