St. Vincent's University Hospital

The Homestay Room was clean and modern. It is close to a petrol station convience store. A pub and take away is in walking distance. Ciara checked me in and was accomodating. I had difficulty using the house key and shower controls due to my infamiliarity. All said I enjoyed my stay in Ballyboughal.

Nice hotel, lovely room, very clean, staff friendly and accommodating. Would recommend working out how to drive into the car park on arrival rather than using The Square!

A very ok hostel. The first pod we got assigned smelled like urine, so we brought it up to the manager and they were able to assign us a different one. The usb ports in our pod did not work and this seemed like a common issue. I heard multiple other people complaining about this to reception. The "kitchen" is not a kitchen at all. Just a microwave, kettle, and panini press. There was 1 bowl, 2 plates, a couple sets of silverware and a handful of mugs to use, but no sink, so you had to take any dishes upstairs to the bathrooms to wash them. And there were only 3 bathrooms for the whole facility, each one with a toilet and shower, so in the morning and evening it was common to have to wait a very long time for any toilet to be available. The showers were quite good once you got one, and the beds were comfy at least. TL;DR, VERY lacking in facilities, but a cheap convenient place to stay.
