I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and exceptionally helpful receptionists. Though the area around the hotel was a bit run down, the central location made it easy to explore the city. The dining options were good, offering healthy choices, but the food quality could be better.

The hotel is located on the quay, offering a beautiful view of the water. The rooms are spacious with 3 single beds but lack atmosphere. The receptionist was friendly and helpful, but there was an issue with accessing my room upon request. The location is great for exploring Cork city center but not near the city's heart. The dining options cater to various tastes with healthy choices, although some dishes were not up to standard. The hotel is clean in all areas visited and conveniently close to Kent train station and the city center.

I stayed at the hotel and had a nice experience overall. The rooms were in good condition, and my kids loved the additional canapé bed. However, it did get a bit hot even with the fan, which was a downside. The service was great, especially from the receptionist during check-out and the senior manager who interacted in an agreeable manner. The location was convenient as it was close to the bus station and the harbor, perfect for catching a morning ferry. The dining options were satisfactory, but the food wasn't exceptional. The facilities met my expectations, providing everything I needed during my stay.
