Describe host city: Student life dominates the city
Activities: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Nightlife, Travel: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
As far as Pubs in Maynooth go, there is not much on offer. Going to Dublin in the evenings is defenitely the better choice, although getting there and back takes a while and night buses are quite expensive. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
