Eileen personally greeted us even though we arrived late. Easy check-in. The room was clean, tea/coffee making facility is available. The place is just outside of the town, main attraction being Blarney castle. You can walk there from Eileen's place but if you have other things to do on that day, like we did, do yourself a favor and drive there. It takes about 3 hours to walk around and your legs will thank you later.
