I had high hopes for the Red Bank, Skerries at the price (€110 for 2 for 1 night), rating and from the pictures. Sadly I was very disappointed. Although the room was clean it is in dire need of renovation, from broken furniture to dirty-looking grouting. The shower head is clogged with lime so it sprays out the side and onto the floor, horrible shower curtain that sticks to you in the tiny bath. Despite the price nearly all the products available are from a large German discount supermarket, from the shower gel, hand wash to the yoghurts and I suspect the rest of the breakfast foodstuffs. Arrived for breakfast at 9am and continental consisted of cheddar cheese slices (there were 2 left and it was never replenished), one form of salami (bright pink), one basic croissant choice, some cereals and the aforementioned yoghurts. Coffee was "Kona" filter coffee only which was cold. I had scrambled eggs with barely toasted bread, my husband the "full Irish", 1 sausage, 1 egg, 1 bacon rasher, ½ a small tomato (cold) some mushrooms and very thinly sliced hard black and white pudding. He refused the beans. This is a cut price service at, what I would regard as, a high price. I have to say I was ashamed as an Irish person that this is what our foreign visitors are being offered.
