    Cappavilla because of the pedestrian bridge, if really only a 5min walk.

    Thomond isn't that much further at all really. Possibly gaining a min or 2 at most.

    you dont need a bus form on campus the longest walk would be from plassey and that would be 10 mins the shortest depending on where your going would be dromroe or kilmurry

    there are buses 'every 15 mins' to town

    Dromrow is in the centre of campus, its near everything.

    Theres 3 different bus companies as far as I know serving UL preety much going to UL from the city centre from 7 in the morning till a 11:15 at night. That wont be a problem.

    The only free bus I know of is the one that does the circle between UL, Courtyard student village and brookfield student village which I get every day, the bus driver wont let you off anywhere outside these 3 places. Handy service though.

    Think basic hotel room and you're there. The rooms in the apartment villages (Cappa-Drumroe-Thomond) are pretty much what I would regard as low grade hotel rooms, something like the Ibis if you've ever been in one. They're fine for student accomodation.

    Apart from the buses mentioned, the SU run a nightlink which runs between most of the sudent accomodation on campus and in Castletroy and is a very handy (and free!) way of getting over to friends houses if you're going out or whatever.

    The 3rd Service runsin the Evenings..... Its called the Night Bus..... Its run by the Students Union and is TOTALLY FREE....

    There are 2 routes and the last one of the nights amalgamates the two of them...

    Check An Focal for details!!
