Great site for all kinds o info. : finditireland.com

ONe place we stayed in City Center:Acara House - 35-40 Euros. p.p. includes breakast. That is shown on the above site.

Years ago - we were on the cheap- and rented a room which was actually students lodgings at Trinity Coll.
There was no lock on the door- We paid for the first night & left our luggage & a tin of cookies in the room. Under the pillow I left my make-up bag. (Held all the goodies)My husband was very nervous about the no lock situation. We walked about two blocks & we went right back. Didn't see anybody-- The suitcases were untouched-But some SOB took my make-up & the cookies. We cleared out-Lesson Learned-Cheap is not always good.

WE stayed in some lovely B&Bs in Cork City, Limerick & Donnegal. Great People!

Hope you have fun.
