The Cork hotel has an industrial vibe. Well, it was a cork factory converted to a hotel, so it is authentically industrial. But the good mattress and upscale sheets makes your sleep feel pampered.
The shower water pressure was good, but heat only lasted for about 2 minutes before it started to cool. One of us had a very cold shower. The bath products are amazing. Lavender and no touching wall hanging products that strangers have used. They still care enough about spreading germs to give each guest their own bath products.
You can hear hallway noise if guests are loud.
Traveling with allergies is challenging for us and the hotels we choose. In this hotel we were able to stay in the first room we were assigned. Air quality seemed good, it was winter and the heat from the lower floors made our room too warm even though our heat was not running. Fortunately, the windows did open and the problem was solved. The air quality outside on the night we were there was ok with the window opened as well.
They used to have a restaurant there with a great breakfast. However, that seems to not be an option anymore. We did not walk around the area as we had morning appoin**ents and only stayed the one night.
We accidentally lost a set of keys there and the staff took our name and said they would look for them. Everyone was very nice.
