The property was exactly as described, right in the heart of Market Square in Moville. There are several shops and restaurants within easy walking distance, and picturesque Lough Foyle is just a block or so away.
The apartment is very well-equipped with everything you could need for a short stay, including kitchen utensils and appliances, and the lighting is bright and well-positioned. The wireless internet is fast and reliable. There are beds for four people (one double and two singles, one of which is a bunk bed), plus a comfortable sofa that could sleep one more. There are also many thoughtful touches like extra bathroom supplies in the closet, cleaning supplies under the sink, and plenty of plates and glasses.
In adddition to the local shops, there are vendors for fresh vegetables and for fish who set up once a week just outside in the square. There's also a store selling organic vegetables about a block away from the apartment (near the post office). If you don't have a car there is a local taxi for getting around, but be aware the driver only takes cash. (A Bank of Ireland with a 24hr ATM is just across the street.) There are local buses to Letterkenny in Donegal and to a few more distant destinations that stop just across the square at the coffee shop.
The apartment is on the 1st floor (that's the floor above the ground floor) and the stairs in the building are fairly steep and narrow, so this property wouldn't be appropriate for those with mobility difficulties. Other than that, it would be great for any couple or family.
The fishing village of Greencastle is 5km to the north, with a ferry to Northern Ireland in the summer. The border is about 20km away to the south and the nearest major city is Derry, 30km south in N.I. (UK). Note that you will need UK pounds, not euros to shop in Northern Ireland.
If you're travelling in the north to Donegal, Derry or the Inishowen peninsula, this is an excellent place to stay. Highly recommended!
