The view of the river was nice but it was extremely noisy with people yelling and banging doors until 4am. When they say it is a college dorm, they literally mean it is a college dorm. It is cheap for a reason.

The room was a bit bland & basic. There was no mention anywhere when we booked that it was student accomodation. Noisy road. Staff not helpful. No greeting on a daily basis when coming & going. Shared kitchen was clean but had no cups or plates & cutlery was minimum. Glad it was only a short stay.

The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The radiator in one room was on full despite it being a hot day. There are a few complexities finding the right apartments in each block and using the door locks. The room by the road was quite loud with traffic, even with the windows closed. The rooms near the back were quieter. The ensuite was clean and modern. I was very impressed with how calm and friendly the reception staff were.

I would book somewhere else if I were you.
The place looks completely different to photos in the room. The pictures shown are prespective views of what the room could look like.. after you've furnished it! The rooms are bare, no cleaning products available in room and bed was barely made. Staff wouldn't refund the two extra nights we booked even though we said we would stay one night because nothing else was available. Hotels.com did great and refunded us some money but yeah, do not book here unless you're a student or low on cash. Just book somewhere else, students were still in the communal areas so you can't freely use as it kind of implies in photos. There's not even a bin in your room to put waste in. The staff at the front are lovely and welcoming though, I just think the adverts are misleading.

Superb Value Option for Cork
Amnis House is a superb budget option as prices in Cork on concert nights are very high. The location is brilliant, just beside the city centre and university, within walking distance of everything. I thought it was very clean and modern. By it's nature it's no frills but very comfortable. My room had a full window overlooking the river at the back as if it was in the country.

Unfortunately too noisy
Lovely setting if you get a room on the river side, but the walls are paper thin. Every time someone open a door you can hear it. Only for heavy sleepers. It’s a shame cause the place is really lovely.

Noisy neighbors and no much sleep…
My partner and I spent 2 nights @ Amnis House. The place is very well located - only 5’ walking from the city centre and main bus stops. The staff was very friendly and up to help with whatever was needed. The room was okay - although the mattress was a little uncomfortable. The biggest issue we faced was during the first night: we could hear people passing by our room’s door, opening and closing the door of their rooms; it sounded like some people were having a party in one of the rooms beside ours and we could listen everything from our room. The group stayed up until 3AM slamming the doors and we couldn’t have a good night’s sleep during our first night in. We recommend the place in case you are having a low budget trip but if you care about a nice night of sleep it might not be the best option.

This is student housing for the local university that is less than a year old. The building is a little west of rhe main tourist strip (about a 15 minute walk), so be prepared for walking. Everything is clean, brand new, and fully stocked. Fully equipped kitchen with fridges, cupboards, dishwasher and stove. Plates, glasses, cutlery all provided. The rooms are 6 in each section, and have heavy fireproof doors, so you can hear your neighbours coming and going. Over all, a great place to stay. Really helpful, friendly staff too.

This is a residential dorm during the school year. As such, the floors are tile and someone with "hard" heels will make enough noise that you will hear it in your room. The doors also make significant noise when closed hard. Quite suite mates make a big difference. The rooms are clean, and simple. Don't expect hotel amenities, such as a clock, TV, etc. I would stay here again, just need to keep my expectations somewhat different than staying in a hotel.

The location was convenient and quiet and a view of the river. Staff were nice and helpful. Useful to have an iron in the kitchen. The breakfast booking service with Centra is a bit unhelpful and e-mail did not work when \I tried to send it ae 21.45 befoe the 10 deadline. The duvet cover and sheet could have been ironed as I told staff before I left. A bit rich when you you pay over 80 euros in student accommodation just for the room. Also, it would have been useful to know that you could make coffee in the kitchen near room. All a bit minimalist really for the price.

An example of getting what you pay for, Very small room with very small double bed up against a wall. No glasses, cups or coffee/tea amenities. Parking is some distance from accommodation. It s essentially student accommodation, not a hotel. Cheap and clean but we wouldn’t stay again.

Guys at reception were very helpful. David kept my wife’s phone in office until I arranged it to be collected, she forgot it in the room, thankful to him and a special thanks to the person who handed it to the office. Overall it was a nice stay. It’s just that room was very tiny n it must have been a small double..
