Lovely building! Sean takes obvious pride in everyone having a comfortable stay. There were ample fridges, and a very large, well stocked kitchen, including tea, coffee, milk (there was non-dairy milk in the fridge!), bread and snacks. The room had a nice wardrobe in it, ample outlets, and very cute bedside tables and a little chair. There is a washer and dryer on-site. There is also a shared space to eat and hang out, though there wasn't much of a socializing while I stayed.

The location is beautiful and the room was very comfortable. Unfortunately we couldn’t stay so long due to our plans but we would definitely recommend the place.

Showed up, super simple check-in, extremely clean. Beds were the most comfortable beds I've had throughout my trip. Facilities are very clean and well maintained nice little patio area outside and is in a very quiet area so no car noises etc will bother you. All in all just an absolute pleasure.

The stuff was super friendly, I was travelling for a conference and I arrived after the conference dinner late and night. Very welcoming. Even in the morning, I told them I would leave earlier before the breakfast and he had already prepared it beforehand. Super nice, made my experience in Cork more and more welcoming.

The staff member on duty was friendly and welcoming, and helped us with some questions about the local area while he checked us in. We were a bit early but no fuss over that. He also carried our bags upstairs as we are an older couple. The kitchen was big enough for purpose and well equipped. One stove needs repair and the was other in use so we used a microwave. The rooms are tiny so we sat in the courtyard or dining/common room.

The hostel was one of the best places we found in Ireland. Simply in a fantastic place. It is a hostel that should be preserved as it is. Simple (not elegant) and just in front of the sea.

Extremely quaint hostel in a breathtaking location. Seemed like a lot of backpackers and other young travelers were staying there. Right across the street from a great pub and some good restaurants. Easy to access by bus but not much within walkable distance. Staff allowed us to drop off our bags before our check in time. Room and bathroom were clean.

It's absolutely beautiful and cozy. You can sit in a nice living room by the fire and they have a huge back yard with chickens. It's close to the city center and the bus station where bus coaches will drop you off. You can walk to Ross Castle in 40 minutes and into the Nationalpark. The rooms are big and you have privacy with curtains. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the two dogs are absolutely adorable. The showers and bathrooms are clean. Best hostel I ever stayed at.

Excellent stay for the hostel. Had a room to our selves, bunk beds, which is perfectly grand. Facilities were great too, kitchen, chill out area and bathroom/shower. You definitely need a car, and it is not difficult to find, and place of parking spaces. If we are going that way again, will definitely book Greenway & Copper Coast Hostel again

Hostel itself was well equipped with beautiful views and and comfortable.lounge and kitchen. We liked the fact that this was a community enterprise. The cakes were a nice touch. The pub and shop next door are a real bonus and the lady that runs them was an absolute star letting us into the pub 10 minutes early for a Guinness. Great location to break on the Kerry Way. Private room with en suite bathroom was comfortable.
