We spent a very short time in Cork and used this as our home base. Too bad because it's a gem! Very spacious, clean and cozy. Conveniently close to the city center. Hosts were responsive to our requests for info and graciously accommodated our request for a late arrival. We drove and parked in the cathedral lot across the lane - this worked out well but keep in mind if you leave your car for an extended period you'll have to go down to buy a new ticket after the old expires.
