Great room in a great location

Fabulous location. Was a bit dubious at first as it is located in the student halls of the university but as soon as we opened the door to the room we were very pleasantly surprised and impressed. Great for close proximity to all the sights and in the evening the nightlife of Cork is just a 4 minute walk away. Would definitely come back as there are still some unfinished sights and sounds to be had.

Hugo house was a great short stay location for us in Cork. It’s typically student housing and had plenty of great amenities such as games rooms. We felt the entire location was clean, safe and excellent to travel to.

This place was amazing. The location is great with tons to see and do nearby. There's no onsite parking, however the staff will validate parking at a nearby garage that's a 5min walk away. The staff was friendly and we couldn't have been happier with the accomodations. I would definitely stay here again.

Okay for a short trip

Ok for 1 or 2 nights. These are student accommodations so do not expect extra comfort nor services. The rooms are noisy, no TV, internet was not working, small bed and no daily housekeeping.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
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.

Kitchen area on own floor as well as the floor our party stayed at was not as clean as it could be. One group’s dishwasher was broken. So meeting space was less than perfect. On the other floor, not sure if dishwasher was working. Dishes appeared to be dirty.

This is a terrible place. The staff is under trained. I booked a double room and end up with only one twin bed room. No sofa, no bed side table, no lamp- nothing. The toilet is tiny- can’t watch face-and they did not provide basic toiletry and tower dirty with strong detergent smell and made my skin feel itch and red. Overall, this is far under the basic hotel standard. I requested to change room being refused. Never ever live in this accommodation!!!!!!

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.

Super location

Great place to stay, great location and comfy clean room. Felt very safe with all the locked doors you have to come through to get to your room. Its a bit echoey so you hear doors slam alot but thankfully i seemed to.share my floor with families and couples so it was general noise but if there had been young ones partying it would have been a bit of a nightmare. The kitchen didnt feel clean. Its communal and other people thought it was okay not to clean up after themselves, rotten food in cuoboards and fridges, dishes in the sink. I dont understand people sometimes

Overinflated price. The most basic things were lacking. No bin in the room, the kitchen was filthy. Worktops covered in grease and food remnants all over the floor. Although tea and coffee were provided there were no cups! providing cups in the room with tea/coffee would be a better idea. On the plus side, staff were lovely, reception was spotless, bed comfy. Would stay again but only if the advertised price was at least halved!

Les fenêtre de chambre ne s’ouvre pas beaucoup alors pour ventiler la chambre c’était moins pratique puisqu’il fesait chaud dans la chambre. Or, nous aurions pu aller demander un fan à la réception puisque c’est une possibilité, mais nous ne l’avons pas fait. J’aurais pris une oreiller de plus, mais nous en avions seulement qu’une par personne. Sinon, c’était vraiment propre, confortable, accueillant. Je recommande grandement. Le monsieur à l’accueil était très gentil.

You get what you pay for. It was fairly dirty in terms of the floors and bathroom. The bed was clean but mattress was a rock and constant slamming of doors until 5am in the morning which could be hear every half an hour. No room temperature control so we were baking. Couldn’t open the window due to the noise outside.

Was a little nervous when I booked this knowing it was a student housing “hotel” but my nerves were instantly gone after my first night. Staff was really nice and helpful, the room was cute and just what I needed. Mattress was what you’d expect in a dormitory, but for only 2 nights it was fine. Need your key card to get in basically everywhere so I felt super safe, and it was quiet too!
