[beenthere, 08.09.2008] This B&B is awful - don't stay here. Let me just list a few of the many reasons: 1. COLD.

[Helencbradshaw, 13.01.2008] I recently visited Cork and stayed at a hotel which was (a) not of my choosing, and (b) my room type had been specified in advance as a single room.

I would definitly return to this hotel. [more]
