Pros:

Όλη η εμπειρία μου από τη διαμονή μου ήταν εξαιρετική! Πανέμορφοι όλοι οι χώροι, εξωτερικοί και εσωτερικοί! Πολύ ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό προσωπικό. Φανταστικό πρωινό. Πεντακάθαρο. Εχει απόσταση από το κέντρο, αλλά εμείς είχαμε αυτοκίνητο (το parking ήταν δωρεάν) και δε μας προβλημάτισε. Ευχαριστούμε για την υπέροχη εμπειρία στο ξενοδοχείο σας!

Pros:

Great location, easy parking, and surprisingly peaceful despite being in the city. Quick access to Dublin Airport, too. The room was comfortable and had twin beds as we requested. Excellent bathroom. The staff were friendly and helpful with small requests like a scale to weigh a suitcase. We arrived too late and tired to enjoy the restaurant or bar, but I'll make a point of trying them next time. I appreciate the slightly higher level of service where a cab was ordered, and a message was sent to us in the restaurant when it arrived. Breakfast was excellent.

Cons:

There was nothing not to like. Seriously. This place is great and in excellent value.
