This gem of a home is sparkling clean and has all the amenities you'd want, including a hairdrier, a washing machine and drying rack, a small garden, and warm socks to wear around the house! There are three bedrooms - one with a single bed, one with two twin beds, and one with a queen-sized double - a full bath upstairs with a shower, and a toilet room downstairs.
The home is located within a quiet little gated community with parking at the door. Despite its secluded location, it's just a few minutes walk across the bridge into downtown Cork with its shops and restaurants and the English Market, about a 10 min walk from the Tesco and Lidi grocery shops on the other side of downtown, and a very pleasant 20 min walk to the university.
Michael is a wonderful host who sat down with us as soon as we arrived and shared his top recommendations for food, sights, and more. He checked in with us regularly and was always available to respond to questions. Communication was instantaneous and both check-in and check-out was fast and easy. The only challenge staying here is if you are driving: the one-way streets are a maze and you can easily get turned around if you don't follow Michael's directions!
We will definitely be staying here again when we return to Cork, it can't be beat!
