The night I checked in, the employee might disappointed that I was a Chinese studying in Sweden, not a real Swedish. I answered all the questions he asked and told him that I am a student. Then he repeated my answer "ok you are studying in Sweden"and inexplicably let a passing Chinese woman to translate what he said to me. I was shocked and felt offended. I don't know why he questioned my communication ability, then I told him I can understand the English he talked to me. I expressed my dissatisfaction, but the man did not really realize his rudeness until the end. This is the experience I've never had before when I traveled around Europe. 
This hostel is in a small alley, but there are no obvious instructions outside, so it is not easy to find. 
I was looking for a private room to have a good rest after a 7days adventure trip, but the sound-proof of this hostel was really bad. Sometimes could even hear clearly which movies was the next room watching or which song were they listening to. In addition, there is only one bathroom on the side where I live, so I have to wait for others to use it. 
For the geographical location, because Cork city center is not very big, many places can be explored by foot, so this hostel does not have a real advantage in location.

The worst hostel I've stayed in Europe: very rude staff

The room was simple, but had everything: a double bed, wardrobe, desk, a chair, severla outlets to use, heating and even a mirror on the wall. The condition of the room was excellent, heating works very well, and the reception staff were very helpful and responsive. The appartements come with a kitchen (shared), with plenty of fridge space, tea and coffee and a big table.

Simple but good

The good:-Location (right across the bridge leading to the central area in Cork; short walk to most sites) -Good service (attentive and helpful, gave us a lot of tips on really great activities and sites) -Clean room -Working lift; good for handicapped access (am not handicapped, but have been so I notice these things – however, please don’t take my word for it and call the hotel to verify; I’m not sure what I may have missed).-Price – you probably won’t find anything this central for much cheaper The bad: -No private bathroom in most rooms; bathrooms are shared among many different rooms and have poor ventilation… so they smell really bad. Bathrooms are also okay for limited handicapped access, but only if the person has some mobility and maybe some help. Not sure how accessible the toilet/shower would be. -Rooms are small and spartan -Parking is limited to street parking or a lot that is a 5-10 minute walk -Wifi in rooms is okay, but not the best Conclusion: Manage your expectations. If you are okay with a private room in a hostel-like setting, this is a good option for you. For us, it was fine – nothing to really like or dislike. Just a small, basic, clean place to stay.

Manage your expectations and you'll be fine

BEWARE!!! I would not recommend this hotel which seems like it is a scam. Had to pay for this room in advance. Got to Cork, could not find parking anywhere to get to the hotel. Called the number to this hotel at least 20 times from 2 pm and thereafter , no one ever answered. Finally decided to stay at a nice B & B about 20 miles from Cork. Got to our room and this hotels number called us  at about 10 pm without leaving a message.

Ideal location, very central, perfect to explore all the city’s attractions. Although not too noisy. Easy check-in and check-out. Clean rooms and bathrooms and good facilties in the kitchen. Highly recommend, thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Big value for money.

Perfect few days

Avoid. This place is good for backpackers & college kids, but not for families. Bathrooms are dirty & moldy. Walls are thin. Furniture & carpet is new, but walls need to be painted.

Try Somewhere Else.

Exactly what we needed- absolutely nothing fancy about this place but it was cheap, clean and right in the centre of town. Perfect for somewhere cheap for a short stay. The staff were really friendly and very helpful.

Cheap and cheerful

Stayed here with my wife for a couple of days and found it to be very well located and very quiet since it is on a small street with basically no traffic.The rooms/bathrooms/shared areas were very clean and tidy. We found the staff to be friendly and willing to help whenever possible.

Quiet and centrally located

Again and again

Hotel was great. Bed comfortable. Kitchen on same floor so I could enjoy my morning coffee. Close to everything.
