Would return, if the price is competitive. The location is excellent and the rooms are nice.
Pros:

The breakfast selections are very good but like most offerings these days quite expensive for the convenience. The room was quiet and clean. The location is excellent.

Cons:

When returning to the hotel, you must descend the outside stairs into the lobby to get to the elevators although you can exit the elevators to the outside. Seems like there could be a fix to this.

Enjoyed our stay! Perfect location!
Pros:

The Urban Nest was in a fabulous location! The room was extremely tight with luggage, but we made it work. The shower was hot and powerful, bed was comfy but had to climb over one another to get out. Staff were friendly and professional.

Cons:

Would have preferred the bathroom and shower to be all in one, rather than the shower opening out into the tiny bedroom.

Idéalement situé , très propre et moderne
Pros:

La modernité de l’hôtel , de la chambre . Très propre et silencieux . L’emplacement est idéal pour sortir en sécurité le soir ( je suis partie en solo)
Départ à 11h mais si vous restez la journée sur Dublin , ils peuvent garder vos bagages la journée

Pros:

Stayed at this property for just one night- my husband and I had one room and my mom had another. I will say this place is definitely better for single travelers. My husband and I nearly trampled each other in our room- it was just too tight of a fit with two people and luggage’s. The property however was immaculately clean which I really enjoyed. Staff were awesome! Location was walking distance from just about everything we wanted to do!
