“Bang for your buck!”

The Glen

5 of 5 stars
St. Louis, MO

The Glen was a great find! We booked online, not knowing much at all about it, and we were pleasantly surprised to find impressive budget accommodations. At the time of our stay, we were able to get a private double room with a private bathroom at 25 euro per person. The Glen is no luxury accommodation, so it might not be for everyone, but it fit all our criteria: very clean, spacious, comfortable bed, quiet (even though it's above a bar), amazing water pressure, secure, good location (in the city centre, within walking distance of many good restaurants and pubs). It also has free WiFi and a TV in the room. Only continental breakfast is included, and it's self-catering (including a fully equipped self-catering kitchen)--so you have to wash your own dishes and watch out that the food is in good shape (we encountered some moldy bread, but other bread that was fine). The hallways are a bit dark and the bar downstairs is nothing to write home about (at least the weeknight we were there), but for the price, we have no complaints and highly doubt we could have found better.

“Great Place, Friendly Pub, Wonderful Staff”

The Glen

5 of 5 stars
Houston, Texas
Jun 16, 2008

The Glen was the closest B&B to the bus station, so that's where I checked in (lugging my 70 pounds of luggage around on foot I wasn't walking any further than I had to). I found it to be the perfect place for my stay in Tralee with a very friendly pub at the front, featuring really nice live music at nights. The staff was as nice as could be, and the breakfast supplies were out all day long (nobody seemed to mind my second breakfasts, lol). Accommodations were great. I recommend The Glen highly for anyone staying in Tralee.
