The owners were very helpful and absolutely lovely. The B&B is located next to the local station, and is a short walk back into the city centre. A great cooked breakfast is provided.

The little step in to th bath room was a killer. My poor big toe. Bed was very comfy, breakfast was great, coffee was good. The water pressure in the shower was great. One problem thought. The red for hot was actually cold and the blue was hot water. Thats it. Thank you

I did not like the proprietor banging on my door at 11:00pm and yelling "Turn off the bathroom light if you are not using the bathroom" Nor did I care for her husband or other roommate carrying on a loud and long conversation with someone outside the front door. Our window did not close (seal) properly, so I had to hear it for a long, long time. The place is a mess and a disgrace. It is difficult to beleive you would allow such a place on your webiste. I don't know who they paid to get a 3 star rating, but this place is abominable. I would not ever ever do business with them again, nor should you.

Nothing to like. Decor was terrible. Room old tired, an armature painted them. Rugs, yuck. TV had two channels. Difficult to get hot water for shower. Lots of traffic noise as well as neighbouring rooms. Really would advise anyone thinking of this place to avoid it. Proprietor was not all that good at public relations either.

Steps from a Cork train station and 10 minutes to main bus station, Oaklands B&B is very convenient for a day trip to Kinsale. Owner is friendly, informative, and lovely hostess. Your visiting your Irish aunt for a few days and she’s doing her best to make your stay delightful! Highly recommended!

Ellen who runs this place is amazing. She really makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Even my mother in law with her limeted English felt immediately welcome. The included breakfast is delicious and she will customise it for you and remember the next day. The place is impeccably clean and despite the age of the building feels more hygienic then most chain hotels. The location right by the train station has pros and cons, but it's less noisy than we thought it would be. overall a great experience and my new go to for when relatives visit us. Ellen is always available for a chat and is a font of local history and great stories.

The host was a very nice lady but the house is a bit noisy and the mattress should have been thrown out years ago. If it were under $100, I wouldn’t complain but it was more of a hostel than a hotel and overpriced for what it is.
