Good Points: Location (very near city center and bus station) Bad Points: They make you pay in advance and I was told that I would lose my money if I left early; probably one of the most uncomfortable beds I've ever slept in (springs poking into my back); strange odor (maybe mold?); no use of the sitting room (the only...

They charge you the second you walk in the door for your entire stay, we paid 2 nights and then couldn't leave early after we had such a bad experience as they had our money. They also charge you for breakfast, 7 Euro perrson per day, they cannot call themselves a B&B if they are going to charge. The breakfast... More

We were very lucky to be there during "Jazz Festival". The other B&B in Cork during that week had all "Jazz" price (double price?) but this B&B was okay.

Stayed with my 22 year old daughter and we would both stay again. No rooms on ground floor so overweight and/or lazy americans may wish to avoid this place. More

I had a lovely stay in Acorn House. They had the best showers that I found on my holiday in Ireland. It was very clean and Charlie was very helpful with his information about Cork. More

Acorn house has just been refurbished and my room and my colleagues was to a very good standard.The location was perfect,in the heart of the city- i will return on my next visit More

The Acorn is an O.K. b&b, but not one that you'd likely write home to Grandma about. The best thing going for it is it's location, which is prime. During weekdays, there are a few language schools on the street which attract foreign college students....not a problem, but they do clog the sidewalk on break and make a bit of... More
