David, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A bit dirty, a bit outdated But generally OK, not bad, not perfect. Shower temperature gauge was not working so was kind of a mistery of a temperature of water
Marko, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel was ok. Loved the history of it. Rooms were ok and spacious enough. Shower was tricky and had a hard time shutting it off. Room was incredibly hot which made it hard to sleep. There was a fan provided which helped a little. Property was close to restaurants and shopping. Parking was not great. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
KRISTINE, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location. Staff helpful. A bit too Many emails and automation of check in and out. More human touch in that regard would be appreciated.
Matthew, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good stay, could be improved

Great location and good clean hotel in general. Pool was ok but you need a swim cap and padlock for the locker. We had no heating or hot water in 324.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Limited on site parking and if not available you have to pay a discounted price in a garage a few blocks away. Not convenient and added to the price of the room. Very nice pay for breakfast and quiet comfortable room with a nice bathroom. No air conditioning but a barely adequate portable fan in the room. Friendly staff.
Darrell, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Long story, short- right after we checked in, my husband and I went on a ghost tour. Turns out the hotel was the original Cork hospital starting in 1720!
