Would definitely stay again if I have an event at the helix
Pros:

Loved the location and the convenience of the Londis nearby. Room was lovely and cozy

Cons:

Not a big concern but lots of doors to get through once inside. It was hard to find the room initially and some doors were hard to open

Excellent value accommodation on a modern campus quite close to Dublin Airport.
Pros:

Our campus residence room and shared kitchen and living room were very good. The campus itself is surprisingly large, with some impressive modern and early 19th century architecture. I recommend a walk around the rather forbidding grey granite Albert College building (circa 1838), which has the appearance of a military barracks. Opposite Albert College is Albert Park, which is open to the public. Indeed, during our one-night stay, the majority of the people we saw seemed to be local residents walking in Albert Park or through the campus. The 'Marie Celeste' feel to the campus was I was told because of 'Reading week', when students are sent home to study.

The campus felt very safe, which I explored by foot in the evening and early morning, before checking out. A Londis supermarket is on site and includes a very good pizza takeaway facility. The pizza takeaway closes at 7.30 pm on Saturdays, 30 minutes before the Londis shuts for business.

The campus is well-sited for regular bus services to Dublin city centre and Dublin Airport, the latter of which is relatively close.
