The exchange buildings

The bed was very comfortable

There was a horrible damp mouldy smell from the bathroom that spread into the bedroom, I couldn't sleep with the smell and couldn't face having a shower with the smell. There was no lift so going up to the 3rd floor was hard with a suitcase. The arrangement was a little weird, you had to look up booking.com for a message to give you a video to get the keys to get in, the entrance door was v dusty grimy which coupled with this strange arrangement was concerning initially, however I was happy with the bedroom generally and there was a kettle and coffee which was great. It was in a v loud street so they also provided ear plugs which was good too. I liked the old furniture and wooden floor. The bed was the best but as it was very comfortable.

Great for the price Nice clean towels Fancy coffee machine Bed was very clean mattress had no stains Very nice culturally important building

No mini uht milks for coffee

The pros are that this property is in Cork City Centre and its available at a reasonable price. I arrived a little earlier than the check in time of 3pm and luckily the key was ready for collection and I could access my room, the owner was responsive in the chat and very friendly when I had questions. The bed was fine and my room had a nice view of the street below. Also I liked the old look of the building, felt very historical. Now if you are in Cork for the nightlife this might be a pro in that they have live music playing in the bar outside. I was there for a Thursday night so it played until about 10.30 and then switched over to Rave/Dance music which went on until about 1 or 2am. I not then see my negatives below;

So it started out great, I checked in and then went off to a work event. Things started going amiss when I returned that evening. Firstly it was pitch dark with no lights on when I returned so going to my room was a bit like walking through a haunted house lol. So if you are there for work or just coming back to relax for the evening this might be a huge negative but there's load music playing outside all night until about 1 or 2am. The owner does leave some earplugs on the bed so if a heavy sleeper or don't mind sitting up late then you'll be ok. I went to have a shower and it looked fairly new and modern but after 30 seconds I saw the water wasn't draining away so I had to be very quick otherwise it was going to overflow onto the floor. Assuming that is fixed then shower was fine with ok pressure. Took some time to get the temperature right, controls were fairly fiddly.

Its right in the centre of Cork. Location is the best thing.

Everything else is below average. Its is very very dated and old furniture. The bed is not very comfortable or even long. My feet were rubbing the bottom board It could do with a refresh.

Very cute apartment in the center of town! Clean and easy to get into.

Was next to a very loud club street BUT earplugs were provided which was great.

The rats wouldn't even stay there because of time I arrived it was to late to get anywhere else I had to get out of there as soon as possible the only room left was the imperial Hotel I had to pay 430 82p for tonight's stay i deserve a refund for having to go somewhere else

It was a absolute disgusting place to it should not even be on a holiday site

The location was very central.

Unfortunately, because it was so central, it was very loud at night. There were complementary earplugs, but they can only do so much.
