Pros:

Our 3rd stay at the Cork Factory. We have always found it consistent, pleasant and clean.

Cons:

It's very unfortunate that the bar and restaurant are not open on a Sunday.

Cool place but why the shower was disgusting is beyond me.
Pros:

Hotel is cool. Location great. Employees very nice.

Cons:

The shower was disgusting. Why they put in brown tiles is weird. The grout oozed mold and mildew. It was obvious that the shower had not been properly cleaned for weeks or maybe months. A q-tip run for 3 inches at the base was caked with black goo. Disgusting. No excuse.

Nice interesting place
Pros:

Nice clean big rooms and good photos of the cork days

Cons:

The thermostat was weird and not responsive. Maybe a note on what settings are better would help
Maybe more lights would be good

Great hotel! Lots of history, very vlean and comfortable!
Pros:

Such a cool hotel! Love the pieces of history that are still part of the hotel! It was very clean! I highly recommend eating at Quips Pub which is right across the street (5 minute walk).

Cons:

I could nit pick little tiny inconveniences but they aren’t worth the mention. It was a great hotel but not perfect. But nothing is perfect.

Pros:

The hotel was perfect for our family- charm and clean and proximity to the college. Perfect spot!

Cons:

We thought that the hotel was 125 per night and it ended up being more money. I am not sure why this happened? I would like to figure out what happened from the booking to the actual amount charged per room. We had 2 rooms.
