Pauline is a sweetheart, cool and stylish. I wished we could have hung out with her/had drinks and gabbed. The room is beautiful, but the bed is SUPER firm. We are not used to all these very hard beds in Ireland. We both had a very difficult time sleeping. The house is a nice walk from town but it is on a very steep hill. The walk back is a workout! I almost called a cab but we made it. Her dinner recommendation was on point, it was the BEST dinner we had the whole trip. Cork is a neat town, I would love to visit again.
