    Cuirt is better, its closer to town!
    Both are approx the same distance to college.....back entrance to corrib may be a tiny bit closer.....if you're walking from cuirt to the shortcut to corrib it takes you about 10-15 mins.....if you're walking to the 'official' entrance of corrib, its easily a 20-25 minute walk!

    Then again...I may have been drunk at the time :rolleyes:

    I don't know exactly how much it is but there's no way that it could be more expensive than Cuirt.

    What a load of rubbish. Who the hell walks from the 'official' entrance of Corrib? Even if you have a car you can go the back way. It's 10 mins to the Concourse from Corrib, 2 mins to Cairnes/anything that side of the Quint bridge. Corrib is closer than Cuirt, and minus a windy walk across the bridge. Also it's 105 euro a week, which is a rip off considering you're living in squalor, but the craic is so much better than anywhere else in Galway it's worth it (unless you're serious about your education >_>)
