Pleasant Surprise
Pros:

I was very happy with my stay here. The room was spotless with a supercomfortable bed. Check in was very swift and staff were friendly and competent, I was upgraded to one of the renovated rooms. I felt this hotel was excellent value for dublin with the airport and city bus directly next to the hotel. The area felt very safe for me to walk on my own.The power in the showe fluctuated a bit. Touches such as rituals toiletries and cookies elevate the experience beyond the price point. I would stay again if in dublin and based on value/price i paid I would give full marks.

Exactly what you want from a hotel
Pros:

The room was amazing. Roomy, cozy and elegant interior. The shower was relaxing and the bed very soft. Everything was clean. The welcome kit was really appreciated :)
Finally the location was perfect both for the airport and the city center.
