When we arrived at the property the instructions to get into the place weren't clear or apparent. I called the owner. He was quite rude told me to walk around the back of the property and then hung up the call. When we did get in the room in its self was substandard with old, damaged and marked furniture. The apartment was overall fusty smelling and dirty. We followed the instructions for the internet. It did not work, so neither did any of the channels on the TV as it was smart. All of which were included in the list of facilities offered when booking the apartment. When I called the owner about this, his attitude was condescending and intimidating. He told me that I shouldn't be complaining as all of the said issues were fine with previous and current clients. I explained that I wasn't complaining but asking for advice. Again he hung up on me. When we went to shower there was no hot water. There is nothing near to the apartment either. The city is 19 kilometres away. When we finally got to bed there was banging and shouting from the adjoined apartment into the earlier hours. The following morning my husband and I decided to leave. It was not fit for purpose. I emailed the owner explaining this and requested a refund for the night that we weren't staying. I also told him about us making a video of the apartment to show the unacceptable standard of the apartment. Also that we had asked a neighbour to witness this to verify that we had not created this. He refused. Sending me the following email SELF CHECK OUT: Tuesday 15 August 2023 11:30 Before 12noon. 🛑Please drop the KEY back to where you took them - SAFE BOX 🛑 NOTE: It’s not all about spending so much money to just sleep, it’s a simple place to lay your head otherwise Hotels are available for €300 per Night. Have a Safe trip! The whole experience was very upsetting and stressful. We did book into a hotel. I would advise anyone considering to stay here to give it a wide birth.

Cleanliness of the room and facilities were excellent. The staff were very friendly. Our room was nice and quiet. We were easily able to walk into Dunboyne which is a delightful little town. We had diner one evening at Shivens (I think that was what it was called), the food was great. They had live music and the singers was amazing. We will definitely go again.

BOOKING.COM NEED TO REVIEW HOW THIS ACCOMMODATION IS BEING ADVERTISED AS A GUEST HOUSE as it appears with statements such as social distancing etc and other services but is totally misrepresented. DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE APPEARANCE OF THE ADVERTISING WEB PAGE IT IS ALL FAKE.

Dunboyne village was lovely but do not be conned by booking Dublin Dunboyne Castle Guest. It’s a con It’s a Kip Look at the Reviews mostly very negative. I stay in hotels 3/4 nights every week for work this was my worst experience.

Its my 1st time come to this little town , cause for the business trip. I feel people so nice all around. Lucky me booked a nice guest house. Is located in a nice and quite village. This is exactly I want. Will go again.

MY WIFE AND I BOOKED TWO NIGHTS AT DUBLIN DUNBOTNE CASTLE GUEST-SUPER KING ENSUITE BUT WE WERE ALLOCATED 'A DOUBLE ROOM' WITH SHARED TOILET AND BATHROOM INSTEAD OF SUPER KING ENSUITE. WE PAID EURO 256.50 FOR THE SMALL ROOM THAT WE WERE SQUASHED IN THE TWO OF US. WE ASKED BOOKING.COM TO CONTACT THE OWNER ABOUT THE WRONG ROOM GIVEN BUT WE WERE TOLD HE WAS VERY RUDE, VERY UNPROFFESIONAL, VERY UNHELPFUL AND NOT WILLING TO GIVE A REFUND OR EVEN OFFER COMPENSATION FOR THEIR ERROR. THE PLACE IS A BLOCK OF FLATS WHERE THE ROOMS WERE MADE INTO BOOKING ROOMS. IF YOU DONT DRIVE THE PLACE IF A BIT FAR FROM THE SHOPS TO WALK EVERYDAY. ITS NOT VALUE FOR MONEY. IF YOU EAT FOOD AND EVEN BUY FRUITS YOU HAVE TO WASH THEM AND HANDS AND COFFEE MUGS IN THE SHARED TOILET AND BATHROOM WHICH WAS VERY DISGUSTING DURING COVID 19. THEY MUST CALL IT STUDENTS BOOKING ROOMS NOT DUBLIN DUNBOYNE CASTLE GUEST-SUPER KING ENSUITE. ITS TOO TOO EXPENSIVE FOR THE PRICE AND TOO SMALL THE ROOM 3 WE STAYED IN. WE WERE VERY UNHAPPY AND FELT CHEATED OF OUR EURO 256.50 FOR TWO NIGHTS. WE STILL DEMAND OUR FULL REFUND !!! THIS SPOILED OUR STAY IN DUNBOYNE A VERY BEAUTIFUL CITY.
