Lovely hotel in Donegal

Very convenient hotel from bus arrival, 10 second walk. Pleasant hotel. Bar and two restaurants. Bed was comfortable. Lovely water views. Had unpleasant experience one night at dinner. Dessert never came after 40 minutes. That was unacceptable and staff were indifferent. But would stay here again. I blame one incompetent unnamed waiter.
Near hotel.
