Our stay at Hurley’s place was great! You’ll be staying right in the heart of Kilkenny, with a very short walk to grocery, eats, and pubs.
LOCATION: Awesome. We hung out at Courtney’s which is a traditional Irish pub with live music every night. We had delicious breakfast pastries at Dolcies just down the street. There is a Tesco for grocery supplies within a five minute walk as well.
WIFI: WiFi signal was strong and fast throughout the entire stay.
CHECKIN/ CHECKOUT: John was very flexible with our ever changing schedule for the day, but still met us in person to show us the apartment, and to offer local advice.
AMENITIES: This was midway through our trip so being able to use the washer/dryer was really nice. When you’re drying, you’ll need to run it with half the clothes you washed to get it to work properly.
NOISE: The biggest benefit is also the biggest downfall of the place. Because you’re right in downtown, it is very loud at night - especially on a Friday when we stayed. People were having a good time in the streets until well after 3AM. Fortunately John provides ear plugs, but if you’re a light sleeper you may want to think twice about staying here.
PARKING: There is no parking onsite, but the Glebe Car Park is just behind the apartment and is free from 7pm - 9am, and you can “over pay” to have more time roll over into the following morning.
