The towels in the bathroom were quite old and not to absorbent. The shower was very nice, however. The bed was comfortable, and the view from the windows were nice. ##### Cozette L Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard 25 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful flat in top floor !

The experience was very Airbnb; the only contact I had with another human being on the property was to ask a question of the nice woman who was cleaning the rooms. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt 27 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Great three night stay. Property was clean enough. Slight lack of attention to detail eg. Shower gel empty, curtains need rehanging, no guest manual at all. Those were minor niggles and overall I had a comfy, quiet and pleasant stay. ##### Matt Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### john 4 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Review Bed comfortable shower very good Double room but only 1 bedside locker and 1 side lamp. Room badly needing an upgrade ie paint job as very dated. Towels provided were threadbare. Small outdoor area completely overgrown so useless. Door to ensuite would not close. ##### john Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul 25 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice lodgings The location is excellent, up a few steps from street level. Bear this is mind if you have suitcases. There is a bar just a few doors away and there is some noise from here at night, but nothing too much and didn't really disturb us. The room we had was large & spacious. 2 chairs would have been better than the one chair. There was tea & coffee provided and a mini fridge in the room. The bed was comfortable with power sockets nearby. The shower was excellent. Bathroom extractor fan was broken and some of the lights were also not working. Basic maintenance items could be improved. But overall, a nice lodge for a few days. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Courtney 3 May 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property was very centrally located and we enjoyed being able to walk everywhere. However, the owner took many days to respond via email in the days leading up to our reservation when I had questions, did not provide a fan when our room was very hot, and the cleanliness of the room was pretty disappointing. It smelled of mold/mildew, there were stains on the bedding and towels, and on the last night we heard scurrying in the night (I assume a small animal such as a mouse or such in the attic doors). I would not stay here again unfortunately. ##### Courtney Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anne 18 Nov 2023 The amount of stairs to get to the front door made it difficult to get luggage up and down . The room was nice We had issues with WiFi password could not read the handwritten password on paper in hallway . Never got sorted out . But location was perfect o walk to restaurants and shops . ##### Anne Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robert 5 Oct 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities Great location in the heart of Kinsale. Everything is walkable. The studio is beautiful, but the bed is soft, and the kitchen is not well stocked. No pans were oven safe. No paring or chef’s knives. More than a few cobwebs. ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### James 14 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The property is convenient to restaurants, pubs, and other attractions in Kinsale village.

Upon entry, there was a musty smell. The bedding was damp. We ended up going to a different hotel for the 2nd night of our stay. We would not recommend The Old Dispensary to stay at unfortunately. ##### Kayla Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 18 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great location. Old building with a lot of character.
