Pratique pour ce que nous avions à faire à Cork pour 2 nuits.
Pros:

Son emplacement proche du centre de Cork

Cons:

Hôtel « dans son jus » fiche papier à l’accueil, porte de chambre qui ne ferme pas à clé, 2 robinets de sdb sans mitigeur et à pression qui éclaboussent et ne tiennent pas ouvert sans appuyer sur le poussoir. Pour autant c’était propre.

Just about okay
Pros:

Good Location and has parking which is a bonus
Staff were very friendly

Cons:

Hotel is very dated which is totally fine but bathroom was disgustingly smelly and they add surcharges to buy things like bottles on water on card payments, encouraging cash.

They also mention not to use booking.com in the future and contact them directly and get a free breakfast. Honestly if I had the time to complain I’d expect a partial refund.
