They are after every single cent in your pocket. Profit is their main priority.
Pros:

It’s centrally located and clean.

Cons:

The room which is the width of one double mattress was awful.
The bathroom was so small it was only the width of two wall tiles.
The food was really poor.
I pointed out that my Thai curry was absolutely swimming in oil, but they didn’t care. The waitress said she’d tell the kitchen. But we never heard another word about it.
I’ll share a photo here so you can see how unbearable it was 🤢
Breakfasts were average, greasy sausages, hash brown and scrambled egg, far from good quality.

Pros:

So clean and cozy and staff are very helpful!

Cons:

The only thing was that the hotel is behind the Stephen’s Green shopping centre so the street is very quiet, which is great that there’s not much noise but I did feel just a bit uneasy walking this street by myself as there were several groups of marginalised people hanging outside the hotel at night time. There was no issue really just to be aware.

Very enjoyable stay
Pros:

Everything was exceptional. We didn't have breakfast, which I regret as we found ourselves wandering around in the rain in search of breakfast. But thankfully we were in Dublin so we didn't have to walk very far. Fab city, crap weather!

Cons:

Being a little bit 'senior', we found our bed a little awkward. In that bed entry is to climb on from the bottom. But the very nice crisp bedding, bathroom and overall comfort made up for the inconvenience.
