The location was excellent and walking distance from the beautiful English market, shops and restaurants. Since it is a student accommodation I was prepared to a less confort, but our family stay was great. The place super clean and the person working at the registration desk was wonderful. Overall a great experience.

It was a college dorm, on the 3rd floor. So not convenient. On a positive note we were all able to have our own room and full kitchen. It was very clean and quiet.

Institutional feel

The apartment felt very institutional. Concrete walls, metal doors, sticky floors, beat up furniture and appliances, tv didn’t work (even if it did, the batteries from the remotes had been removed). No direction on how to get into the parking lot or really in how to check in. Beautiful campus nearby, but not much to do.

Different experience.but best nights sleep since arriving in Ireland. However, no hot water for my morning shower. I would stay here again but would be sure to check the hot water situation.

Enough space but terrible amenities

Didn’t realize this was student accommodation when booking, pictures online were quite deceptive- no pics of the shower and toilet which were not great to say the least. Floor was extremely dirty, could not walk barefoot in apartment - feet were black with dirt in a few minutes. Not the best.

Great location, basic but clean

In a great location within walking distance to city centre, on UCC campus. It is what it is, student accomodation, with layout geared very towards student living. The only real let down is the bathroom which is in a very tight space. There was a great smell of lynx lingering in our bedroom, kitchen was well appointed with everything you need, clean bed linen towels etc. Not a bad spot, we were 4 but could easily have fit 6. Lots of parking and buses just ouside main gate to city.

It works if you're on a budget.

The staff were very friendly, the rooms were definitely dormitories. It wasn't the fanciest, but you get what you pay for. If you are on a budget and aren't picky, this will work for you, but bring an extra pillow and don't walk around barefoot. There are some pretty mischievous children in the area as well. Blarney is a short drive away.

Mostly happy.

Mostly happy. Good 24 hour service and free shuttle bus to and from centre. Only negatives we can give: no sponge in the kitchen, one bedroom smelt musty and wifi made you login again every few hours with username and password. Overall reasonably happy. Oh, very nice walk along the river next door.

College dorms, more like a hostel...

We broughtnour 4 kids here and ended up not staying and finding another hotel. It is not clear on the listing that these are college dorm rooms. The bathroom was terrible and the whole place was musty and stunk although clean looking. It would be ok if I were in my early 20's and with friends maybe, but nit family friendly. There were lots of young people in groups walking around so mught be fun if you're young but wasn't for us with kids.

Ok budget room

This was ok for being a budget stay. We did not realize it was college campus apartments. Layout was interesting. Each room had separate key which was not ideal with young kids. The floor needed a good mopping and bathroom had a bit of a smell. Beds were comfortable. Service was great, they came right away when light in bathroom went out. Free wifi was amazing. For traveling on a budget this was a good location.
