Friendly host, great location. There had been some water damage to the roof of the room we stayed in, and the room certinally looked a bit tired - some dollars spent fixing it up wouldn't go astray. Breakfast was beautiful and the other guests staying there were friendly. We checked in right on 2pm (which was the time we had emailed ahead to say we would arrive) however our room wasn't ready and the cleaner was still cleaning. All we wanted was a rest but instead of the cleaner replacing the towels & cups (the only thing left to do in the room), she vaccuumed the whole house while we waited...we weren't too fussed but would've been great to have taken priority. Huge bathroom & good shower!

I got there without booking, and luckily the owner had a room for me. Nice, quiet room with bathroom and water boiler. Downtown is only a short 5-10 minutes walk away. Very nice breakfast in a nice environment and quiet neighbourhood. The owner, Helen, was really kind and friendly.

Good B&B. Location close to city. Room okay but a bit small. Breakfast good.

Frankly, I was a little concerned about Glen Eagles because of the other reviews ("showing signs of wear," "well worn"), but after we met Helen and saw the rooms, I stopped worrying. The location is the closest to downtown Limerick that we could find (10 min walk to King John's Castle and downtown). Her sister met us when we arrived and was very helpful. The rooms were clean and tidy and very comfortable. The place was also quiet, which was a little surprising given the proximity to downtown. Helen made a great breakfast and even offered to do some laundry for us since we arrived on a Sunday and would have had to forego clean clothes for a day if she had not. We took the bus to Limerick (train station is adjacent) and it was only a ten euro cap ride and five minutes from there to Glen Eagles. Glen Eagles is also less than a ten euro cab ride to a local car rental (Irish National) establishment. We only stayed one night although we probably could have stayed two since we did not get past Bunratty Castle and Folk Park the next day and Glen Eagles is less than 20 minutes away (we ended up staying in Ennis). Louise is a wonderful hostess, likes to meet people and is easy to talk to. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again.
