It's simple, easy accommodation for a very reasonable price: just a room over the pub, up in the eaves. Not too many stairs (2 flights, but not steep or long). Nice shared bathroom with shower, individually controlled heat, sinks and wifi (they've tried to be sure it works well in each room). The rooms are mostly filled up by the beds and the "closet" is rods neatly fitted into the space. The bed was very comfortable and the whole space was enjoyably cozy. It's exactly what we needed for a Kilkenny overnight and would be comfortable for a longer stay unless you wanted a kitchen and/or common room other than the pub. My friend and I had a room each, and the floor to ourselves; we were prepared for pub noise, but Kilkenny is not at its most vibrant on a random Monday in early December). I think we'd have heard noise on the street; anything coming from the pub would probably have been more background noise and vibration. We saw some sights, visited a few very friendly pubs, and finished up the night in the Pumphouse downstairs. The bartender told us to climb the round tower at St. Canice's, and the next morning we did... THAT was too many stairs! :) But so worth it at the top. I'd look forward to staying here again.
