Zentrales Hotel mit lauten Nächten
Pros:

Die Lage vom Hotel ist top. Man kann alle Sehenswürdigkeiten und Restaurants zu Fuß erreichen.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind sehr klein und in die Jahre gekommen. Die Lautstärke ist ohrenbetäubend selbst mit Ohrstöpsel nicht auszuhalten. Außerdem ist es sehr warm in dem Zimmern und die Fenster lassen sich nur ein Spalt öffnen.

Ok, but not great. Location amazing though. That’s what you are paying for.
Pros:

Location great. Bed comfortable.

Cons:

Noisy until all hours. Hot inside room, but when window was opened no guard on it.. just a drop to pavement below. Wouldn’t stay there with young children.

Pros:

Ubicación y personal excelente.

Cons:

Ventanas antiguas que no cerraban ermeticamente y hacía que el jaleo de la calle resultase bastante incomodo por las noches y por las mañanas a primera hora.

Hôtel dans son jus
Cons:

Prix élevé pour un bâtiment vieillissant
Le parking sur ma sélection Booking était prévu dans le prix. Et en arrivant nous avons découvert que le parking n’appartenait pas à l’hôtel et il a fallu rajouter 50 € au montant.

Rooms needs up grading to more modern and windows should be double glaze as too noisy at night.
Pros:

Close to the city.

Cons:

Outdated room, cupboard a bit smelly, carpet dirty and noisy at night when you wanted to rest after a tiring day.

Safe, fun, heart of Temple Bar perfect spot for solo female traveler!
Pros:

I had the cutest little twin bed 1 person room and it was absolutely perfect for just me. I am a solo female traveler and needed just a small room. The shower presser was AMAZING! I was centrally located in the heart of Temple Bar and I honestly didn't hear anything. I was shocked at how quiet my room was. I loved having a little tea kettle and such in my room.
