We didn't stay in any of the B&Bs in the book. We were going to our first night after Dublin, but the one we had picked out was well out of town. We were far less concerned with our accomodations than we were their proximity to the pubs and food. We found our lodging by going to "City Center" and finding where we wanted to be and found the closest B&B to that. We stayed at Acara in Killarney which was right up from one in your book (Orchard House) that was full. We also stayed at the Gables in Gort which was quite nice and we used it as a base for heading to the Cliffs.

Your book was very helpful, especially for lodging in Dublin.
