This place is a good place to stay and the only critique is the beds are a little bit rough. A €50 mattress topper on Amazon would fix the problem. That’s just my feedback. Each apartment has a private room that’s rented out and each room has its bathroom with a private shower and toilet and sink. The only thing that shared is the kitchen. I would much rather stay in a place at this then stay in a hostel. Overall, I will give it a 4.5 out of five. Just one small area of improvement is the bed.

Excellent value for money!

Clean, comfortable & very convenient! Noisy in the morning because of building development in the area, but didn’t start until 8.15am, otherwise perfect for a central base in Cork city!

This was advertised as an aparthotel. This is Infact a student dorm!! Shared kitchen though it comes across as your own kitchen on the Expedia advertisement. Used shampoo and conditioner in bathroom and no bag for the one garbage can. Horribly humid and hot.

Room was very basic student accomodation. No TV and no extras. Very clean but claustrophobically small. One double bed so only really suitable for couples. Ideal location so served its purpose

It’s the university area and it’s a single dormitory room. No A/C and very small twin bed not fit for two. If you’re under thirty you’ll like the area, over thirty it recommend another hotel

Excellent!

Centrally located, clean, friendly staff, and most important...safe. I am a female solo traveler and have never felt more safe in any other place. You need to key card through multiple areas to arrive at your room, which I appreciated. The facilities were clean and updated. Staff was super friendly. There was a kitchen available to store and cook food if you wanted to. There is a small grocery store close by, along with plenty of restaurants, pubs, shopping, and transportation. I will definitely stay here again.

Nice, cheap location

This place is normally a dormitory for college students, but during the summer, they rent it out to the public. The room itself was fairly small as expected, and you have to share a common room, but you have your own bathroom. If you're prepared for all of this, then it's great value. There's a Tesco Express close by, and this is within walking distance for a lot of stuff in the Cork city centre, which is why I booked it in the first place. You're not going to find room service or anything else at "normal" hotels, but that's okay for the price.

Student housing so dorm like situation. No air conditioning so room was very stuffy and limited amenities (I.e shampoo, hair dryer). Very small room. Was quiet during summer stay. Excellent location. Front desk staff were friendly and very helpful.

Weekend away

Excellent location, clean rooms, bed a little uncomfortable and too short for my partner where the cupboard is at the end of the bed. Rooms were warm but cool enough with the window open, unfortunately had to hear people coming back all night, loud voices and endless beeps from the card readers unlocking the gates and lifts. Wouldn't stay any longer

This is not so much a hotel but a hostel in a sketchy neighbourhood. Loud, dirty room, and lots of damage in the room. Drunken fights in the courtyard in the middle of the night too made for a rough stay.

Very central but small room

We arrived about 11.30pm. The reception was open and well lit. The hotel was easy to find and central. We were given instructions on how to find our room. We got to our room, lovely and spacious, however it hadn’t been cleaned from the previous guest- beds unmade, bin overflowing and wet towels on the floor in the bathroom. We went back to reception, the man apologised and took us to another room. The next room was fine; but it was about half the size of the first room which was disappointing. I also hadn’t realised this was student accommodation.
