We loved this b & b and Cork city. It is brilliantly located , just 2 minutes walk to the city center. We thought that it was very good value as the rooms were very large and the adjoining bathroom had a bath - which found to be a rare treat on our travels. Charlie was friendly and cooked a... more

I had a lovely breakfast in the gorgeous breakfast room - original floorboards and beautiful paintings . I would hope... more

We had a lovely stay , we found that the hosts : Charlie & Jackie were very helpful , recommending the best restaurants and bars. The location is superb , only a 3 minute walk to the city center. Our room was very large and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was very good with a selection of cereals toast , brown bread... more

We chose this place because it was recommended in Lonely Planet, because it is so near to the centre of Cork and because we wanted to avoid corporate hotels. What we found was that it was very basic indeed. Our room was large with a bed , one folding... more

We booked in here because of the Lonely Planet review and because of the location. Lots of little things wrong with it such as only one bedside lamp for 2 people, no soap, no hairdryer, inadequate towels, etc The welcome was totally cold and indifferent, she didn't even bother to explain that we needed a parking ticket for the parking... more

Having read the reviews, after I had booked the accommodation, I was worried, but there was no need to be. I found the hosts welcoming and very helpful.
