## Direct links
- Menu: https://www.ashlinghotel.ie/drinks-menu-2026
- Phone: +353 (0)1 6772324

## What to fix first
- **No booking or ordering path at all.** (+13 points) Only a phone number or WhatsApp. Agents cannot act on those yet. Add a booking or ordering page. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
