There is a parking lot around the corner which is helpful in a really busy town. The unit itself is a bit worn and tired but handles basic needs. The shower is very unique and there were no instructions as to how to turn it on. The owner let us know once we reached him. The shower itself is poor. Very little pressure. On a positive note, the owners are friendly and helpful. Great, great location!

Great little spot, right in the heart of the town and on the footsteps to everything. I loved having a little kitchen to make some meals and snacks. Also awesome having a coffee shop immediately below! Parking lot being next door is also extremely handy.

Stayed in apartment 4. Good location, especially liked the views and cafe below. The building and apartment are a little grubby and really needs a good clean and paint.

It doesn’t get more convenient than staying at the Post House! We showed up hungry when we arrived and walked 10 steps across the street to Max’s for the most delicious meal. Woke up thirsty for coffee the next morning and walked downstairs to the delightful coffee shop! We walked everywhere and we so delighted with the city as first-time visitors of Kinsale.

The apartment itself was very nice... however the communication with the owner was not very accessible! Also, if you rent a car parking is extremely difficult! overall, the apartment was nice however I think next time I think I would stay at a hotel that offered parking

Great position and very clean and well appointed apartment it the use of facilities eg shower and fan were very confusing. Wooden floors above meant we heard our ‘neighbours’ above walking around at night with squeaky floorboards and toilet visits

Varun the host was great and readily available with any questions we had and we appreciated that we were able to check-in early. There was a problem with the wi-fi initially but Varun went out of his way to get it fixed as soon as possible. The location was fantastic, walking distance to everything: pubs/restaurants grocery store, etc & a few minutes walk from the bus. Bedroom was a bit small but manageable, kitchen had everything we needed.

Lovely location. Could be 5 star but was a bit dirty and rough around the edges. Kitchen had bare minimum with chipped plates and one pot and pan. Furniture tired, plastic chairs gave the apartment a tawdry feel. With a bit of elbow grease ( clean the baseboards etc) and a bit of money invested this could be a real gem. Toiletries looked as though they were from the dollar store. Art work found in the roadside… Kinsale was lovely and the dirt and cheap furniture was no match for the charm of this little town.

Decent enough place to stay. Definitely read the instructions to find it as it’s a bit hidden. A few hiccups on site but nothing that ruined our stay. Bring ear plugs as there is construction going on at the train station and I think a metal recycling place along the port so it got a bit noisy at weird times during the nite ear plugs solved that. No air conditioning and no fan so you will need the window open
