The room was simple, but had everything: a double bed, wardrobe, desk, a chair, severla outlets to use, heating and even a mirror on the wall. The condition of the room was excellent, heating works very well, and the reception staff were very helpful and responsive. The appartements come with a kitchen (shared), with plenty of fridge space, tea and coffee and a big table.
The good:
- Location (right across the bridge leading to the central area in Cork; short walk to most sites)
- Good service (attentive and helpful, gave us a lot of tips on really great activities and sites)
- Clean room
- Working lift; good for handicapped access (am not handicapped, but have been so I notice these things â however, please donât take my word for it and call the hotel to verify; Iâm not sure what I may have missed).
- Price â you probably wonât find anything this central for much cheaper
The bad:
- No private bathroom in most rooms; bathrooms are shared among many different rooms and have poor ventilation⊠so they smell really bad. Bathrooms are also okay for limited handicapped access, but only if the person has some mobility and maybe some help. Not sure how accessible the toilet/shower would be.
- Rooms are small and spartan
- Parking is limited to street parking or a lot that is a 5-10 minute walk
- Wifi in rooms is okay, but not the best
Conclusion: Manage your expectations. If you are okay with a private room in a hostel-like setting, this is a good option for you. For us, it was fine â nothing to really like or dislike. Just a small, basic, clean place to stay.
BEWARE!!! I would not recommend this hotel which seems like it is a scam. Had to pay for this room in advance. Got to Cork, could not find parking anywhere to get to the hotel. Called the number to this hotel at least 20 times from 2 pm and thereafter , no one ever answered. Finally decided to stay at a nice B & B about 20 miles from Cork. Got to our room and this hotels number called us at about 10 pm without leaving a message.
Bien situado, limpio y tranquilo. La Ășnica pega que pondrĂa serĂa que la puerta del baño era un poco ruidosa y nuestra habitaciĂłn estaba justo al lado.
Vi overnattede her en nat i privat dobbeltvÊrelse, og det var sÄdan set fint, men er glad for vi kun havde en nat. God wifi. KÞkkenet var lidt slidt, og kunne godt have haft flere ting at lave mad med, men var rent og fint. VÊrelset var ikke helt rengjort, med blandt andet en snavset klud efterladt pÄ vÊrelset. BadevÊrelset var fint nok, dog lidt snavset kabine. VÊrelset var ellers ok, men sengen var meget ubekvem.
Avoid. This place is good for backpackers & college kids, but not for families. Bathrooms are dirty & moldy. Walls are thin. Furniture & carpet is new, but walls need to be painted.
Exactly what we needed- absolutely nothing fancy about this place but it was cheap, clean and right in the centre of town. Perfect for somewhere cheap for a short stay. The staff were really friendly and very helpful.
Super netter und hilfsbereiter Portier, sauberes Appartment mit kompletter KĂŒche (als Gemeinschaftsraum); quasi mitten in der Stadt, trotzdem ruhig. Einziges "kleines Manko" (wenn man dies ĂŒberhaupt so nennen möchte: es gibt ein Gemeinschaftsbad/-klo fĂŒr 3 Zimmer.
