Self-service laundry

We are going to need self service laundry in Kinsale. Is anyone familiar with such? Or reasonably priced wash-dry-fold?

If you're spending the day/night in Kinsale, use a service. Over the years, I've tried to use Revolution (prior name) and there was always some problem like a washer that wouldn't extract well, dryer that wouldn't get hot, or machines out-of-order. They are out in the carpark or sometimes on the apron of a gas station. Every time we've planned on self-service, we end up with damp clothes hanging in the room overnight. Many B&Bs will charge 10Euros to wash things while you're out seeing things, and there are wash/fold services in many larger towns that are similarly priced. I now plan trips based on the availability of a laundry service - it usually just involves swinging back into a town to drop off or pickup. I value our time when traveling far above the cost of a service.

I'd go to Kinsale Dry Cleaners if your schedule meshes with their hours. We've never used them, but their reviews are good.
