We contacted Joe, a few days before to discuss a late check in. He said no problem, gave us the code to enter, told us our room number and left the key in the room. The property is well maintained to a high standard, the rooms are spacious, well laid out with a big bathroom. Joe contacted us the day before to ask us what time we would like breakfast, he read out the menu and we chose our items for our fry. On entering for breakfast we met Joe, who is a very pleasant man and cannot do enough to help you. A great selection of cereals, bread, sweet and savoury items, fruit and of course a wonderful fry. I would fully recommend The Courtyard as a great place to stay, it is just odd the main Limerick to Shannon road, it far enough away so there is no noise. It is quiet, very reasonable and Joe is the consummate host.
