Feedback
The restaurant is situated in a fantastic location, just a 5-minute walk from the train station. As a local, I love coming here for my pint. I have a suggestion: it might be a good idea to acquire the old Garda station next door to increase the number of beds, and perhaps transform the front area into another bar or restaurant. Just a thought that crossed my mind!
Best hostel in Cork. Unlike Sheila's here you have the opportunity to get a good night's sleep. The vibe is chill and friendly. Plus It's very easy to make new friends in the common area. The staff is great and they're always ready to help you out. Also the rooms are quite clean and having an ensuite bathroom is a great idea. Highly recommended for your stay in Cork.
Staff were lovely, pizza was good. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. really enjoyed and would recommend
The Brú is an absolutely brilliant place to stay. Friendly staff, clean rooms, fair prices and free breakfast! The only downside: it can be quite loud on weekends, since some rooms are directly above the bar. The bar itself is awesome to hang out later in the day and to check out local musicians. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely come again!
