The owners disappeared behind closed doors the entire time-not breakfast. We wanted to turn the register on for some heat, but didn’t know how to reach them. We emailed but didn’t get a response. In hindsight we should have looked for a phone number.

Friendly, comfortable, great breakfast!
We had a lovely stay at the Old Fort Lodge! The hosts were friendly and welcoming and our room was very comfortable. The highlight was the lovely cooked breakfast in the morning to get us started on our day!

Old Fort B&B is a fine option for a visitor who doesn't mind staying outside the town centre. The walk from the train station is pleasant, and the neighborhood is charming. Clean, comfortable accommodations, with a full Irish breakfast.

Dear Son Young Your review is somewhat useless. It would have been at least helpful were you to point out the shortcomings you perceived so that they might be corrected. Peter

Glad to be leaving.
Very dated and tired condition everything was basic no heating house was cold and shared bathroom . Looks like it was furnished out of a charity shop. Breakfast was good. Would not be a candidate for 4 in a bed.

Peter, I find your reference to the house being furnished from a charity shop insulting and uncalled for.Sorry you found the house cold but it is Summer after all. Glad you enjoyed the breakfast. Peter

Owners were perfect blend of yin and yang. Mary is a sociable, engaging and caring hostess, whilst Peter exudes an unflappable but equally compassionate calm. Both professional without resorting to a robotic script. Their wonderful manner (and the robust breakfast) got me through a difficult weekend and enabled me to have the end of life discussion my mum needed. I would heartily recommend for those who can share a bathroom without hysterics, and who understand that tasteful, established furnishings are more in keeping with the sustainable planet we all claim to love than this year’s bling. I will be back.

Very quiet, homey, and peaceful property good for exploring Sligo in a residential neighborhood. Kind hosts and very clean. We would definitely recommend this for other quiet travelers.

For me it was perfect. I just needed something handy for the night, close to the town. Place was clean, accomadating (i checked in really late with no bother) and breakfast was lovely.

B&B melko kaukana keskustasta,jaettu kylpyhuone
Huone pieni,aamiainen ok.Ongelmana käytävällä oleva kylpyhuone/WC.Lähistöllä vain asuinaluetta,joten ruokapaikka etsittävä autolla .Ei siis kovin kätevää.
