Pros:

The staff were exceptional, very helpful, kind and understanding, providing guidance and assistance for needs during our stay.

Cons:

I think I paid a premium for the location, but there were compromises for the location.
When I booked, I had read reviews and I was aware that there would be noise from music being played downstairs and other reviews indicated that this was tolerable with earplugs, given the location. What I didn't plan for, however, was that the music would continue very loudly not just from downstairs but also across the road, until 3am. I accept that I should have considered this being a Saturday night/Sunday morning. At 6am the noise from the street cleaners or council workers commenced. At 7am I could hear every movement and conversation from the loud people next door, however perhaps this was because I was over-aware of noise by this time. On the Sunday night, music continued until midnight.
My room was booked for 3 adults and although the bedding was fine and quite comfortable, there was little room for much else (ie, luggage of 3 adults). This would probably not have been an issue if it was only 2 adults, absent an additional bed in the room.
In hindsight, I should have looked more carefully at the days I would be staying given the other reviews about noise, and whether 2 rooms would have been more suitable, although the cost for this would have been prohibitive. I also couldn't have planned that 2 of the 3 adults would have been very sick (cold/flu) and a proper night sleep would have been beneficial to assist with recovery, and they found themselves having to rest during the day and not enjoying all that Dublin had to offer.
Overall, this was a suitable accommodation in an excellent location, however one must be aware of whether you can tolerate noise and the days you are staying (noting it might be quieter during the week).

Pros:

Bästa läge, väldigt trevlig och hjälpsam personal, fräscht rum och toalett, sköna sängar.

Cons:

Inga ”krokar” att hänga kläder eller handdukar på. Fönster var dåligt isolerade vilket innebar mycket mer lyhört än nödvändigt. TV-n var löst uppsatt vilket gjorde att man var rädd att den skulle trilla ned.
