The room was clean and well appointed.
The bathroom is tight, but water pressure is good!
Food options for dinner within walking distance are almost non existent, so it's an adventure!
Breakfast though is well stocked and there are options for everyone!

The room and bathroom were clean. Bed was comfortable and bedsheets spotless.
Continental breakfast was available with a wide variety of breads, croissants, muffins and cereals.
Parking on the street might be a challenge though since the street is narrow and cars are parked in both sides.
Our one night stay was pleasant.

The view alone was worth the price (which was also good). All the staff were very friendly too. The breakfast provided was great. It's in a quiet area but also not a bad walk to get to whatever else you need.

Great location to Free Derry museum and area. Cool space - great staff. You can even buy a Guinness. The bed and linens in my room were tired.

Loved our stay here! Staff were nice, friendly and helpful! Breakfast was great! If there’s one gripe, I have to say was that the shower head in our bathroom was leaking hard so we needed to tone down the water so as not to have the water get out of the shower enclosure, otherwise the bathroom would have been flooded . But other than that, our stay was terrific and I highly recommend this B&B.

Beautiful view of entire city from bar & patio!
Excellent location to avoid city center, was very quiet, small room but had everything you need, short very do-able walk to city centre, staff were all very kind and helpful, on-street parking but was not a problem getting a spot. But even better than all of that for us was the bar and patio in the back. So cozy and beautiful with a spectacular view of entire city. And at night the view is stunning with city lights.

One night stay for GAA match
Very nice place to stay, on Arrival room was quiet cold and had to turn on rad. Forgot to turn off and room went to other extreme at nighttime. There seemed to be only one setting. We had selected this place partially because of breakfast included but in the morning we discovered that it was on continental breakfast and hot breakfast was an extra charge. Now the hot breakfast was good quality and value. Other than these small things it was very cosy, friendly spot to stay and great location for matches in either Celtic park or the brandywell.

The double room we had was tiny as was the bed. Breakfast is a simple continental one. Location from town is ok, parking is on the street so be sure to get there before the residents finish work. Overall it was cheap and cheerful. If we were staying more then 1 night I would find something a bit more spacious.
