It was a nice place, very Gen z, with extremely friendly staff and nice facilities. The beds and toilets were clean and nice and there was a mirror in the room and each bed had a charging port with a little light. It was a very nice stay. I felt safe since it was a women’s dorm aswell so that was nice.

Accidently booked a mixed door but felt super safe. So many bathrooms and communal areas, kitchen with baskets you can leave food. Always clean, when cleaners come in to change bedding for those who check out they are always quite never heard them. Beds have plugs, usb and light. Staff are super helpful and theres always someone 24hrs a day which was super helpful when I accidentally left my key card in my room. Super close to town, bus station, train station and near a local shop open pretty late but they also have drinks you can buy at the hostel. Some bathrooms had hairdryers and some not you just have to check them.

Only bad thing I'd say is no curtains on beds but if your bottom bunk easy to hang towels ect for privacy and you get used to it after a while.

Great service, dedicated staff, friendly guys. Very clean bed linen, proximity to local shops. Parking (although it is always full and you may not be able to park)

The shower had chewing gum on the floor that had been there for the entire week. In other words, the floor and walls had not been washed for days, causing problems such as the transmission of skin diseases. Infrastructure. I complained about the radiator not working, I know someone went to the room to fix it, but they didn't notice. The floor heating system was weak, perhaps to reduce costs, I took showers in water that was too lukewarm to cold and in cold environments.

The staff is very nice and helpful in giving information and solving small inconveniences. The large kitchen allows you to leave everything you need to cook your own meals. The common areas are just large enough to be able to socialize, larger would be better but given the layout of the hostel I think it's not possible to go beyond that. Very useful is the locker with enough space even for large suitcases. The location is good for not being in downtown traffic and being able to rest without too much noise and get to the center in a short time.

Breakfast is a bit poor with few things, I suggest to increase a little bit the price but add something more. Wouldn't mind having the common rooms a little bigger. The bed squeaked a bit, being a bunk bed if someone already sleeps in the room this can be a bit annoying. Some of the bathrooms are a little small, but it's not really a negative point, you just have to arrange it.

The location was central and we could connect the town easily. The hotel environment was nice cozy. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. The security in the hotel was great.

They could not fix the heating system in our room till we left. The water heating system in our room was not fixed till we checked out.

The place was well equipped for what was offered in the price. The receptionist (didn’t see his name) was professional and friendly, who checked me in and out of the hotel. The rooms and bathrooms were neat and tidy, and the place appears well facilitated, though did not get the chance to use them. Bed was surprisingly comfortable and slept through! Breakfast, which I believe starts from 8 am, although there is a self-service kitchen if one wishes to make breakfast earlier. There are seated rooms with tables and charging outlets. When back in Cork I’ll definitely consider staying here again to get the full experience.

I would like additional possible things that sheilas hostel propose like, breakfast, laundry ( there was many options. Customers sincerly care of comforts for guests and I really apriciate that. Also location was for me perfect and that there was actually no restrictions about time when I should get back

The things I liked less are just small details, which might be not much important for others. - I didn't have adapter so I tried to use just USB port for charge my phone and I discovered it is no charging actually ( such slow , even after longer time , the percentage of my battery was almost same - another thing is also about plug inn device. For example I didn't want to disturb other girls in my room, by things like drying hair , but there was no possibility to plug inn device on bathroom or some other place. also I think in case of whole floor, there should be little more bathrooms, but in general I will recomand sheilas to others sincerly.

Great value for money and fantastic location. We felt really safe and the staff were friendly and helpful. The desk is covered 24 hours which was perfect for our late night adventure in Cork. It was just what we needed for a spontaneous fun girly weekend.

The beds weren’t the most comfortable but they were perfect for a night. The taps were very powerful which took us by surprise but after we’d soaked the bathroom once we learnt how to use it carefully.

Really convenient location, esp close to the buses coming in from Dublin. 24 hr access, awesomely well equipped kitchen for self-catering, nice and clean overall. storage bins under the bed are nice

A bit noisy, but to be expected in a large dorm setting. Get earplugs! Probably not the most critical - the socket above the bunk bed holds a plug against gravity. So if you have a international plug adapter, and something then plugged into it, it tends to fall off. Of course, the good thing is that there are 2 USB sockets as well. And the fire alarm went off twice early morning... (thankfully probably just burnt toast :)

It was actually pretty clean with lots of lounge areas. The kitchen was big and clean. The bathroom and shower were clean most of the time. The only time it was a bit of an issue was Saturday morning when everyone was there. The internet was strong and fast. Was able to work in the common room workout issue. We were there on Thursday-Saturday. I can see how on the weekend keeping the bathrooms clean in the morning would be hard. Very easy to walk everywhere
