Avoid this hotel
Pros:

The location was great.

Cons:

The girl on reception , really first have time for us when we checked in, they had a issue with a toilet by reception, 2 staff carried a pretty large and heavy bag of raw sewage through the reception and also hit us with it as we entered the building, nothing was cordoned off.This The room should only have had 1 person in it, not 2 with luggage. The room was noisy , you here the outside very clear and the next room and people in the corridor. The lighting was a pain to use , there was a sink in the room, not the bathroom.??? There were item just left in corners on the stairs well boxes floor mats, and a delivery blocking the a fire exit and restricting the exit from the normal stairwell exit ,which the hotel actually encourages people to use rather than the lift.

Cozy stay in our Urban Nest
Pros:

This is a beautiful eco friendly hotel. The rooms are small, but very well thought out with plenty of room for storage. As others have noted, you can only get out of bed from one side, but that wasn’t an issue for us. The breakfast was great with many options to choose from. Location great too! Tucked away in a small street above nosy Temple Bar it was very quiet, and also convenient for getting around to see all the sights.

Cons:

A little confusing at first figuring out the tech-y lighting, but not a problem once we figured it out.

Pros:

L'emplacement est très accessible au centre ville. Le petit déjeuner est bon et copieux.
La décoration est très reposante et l'hôtel est calme.

Cons:

La taille de la chambre est petite. L'accès au lit pour la deuxième personne du couple n'est pas facile même si nous étions prévenus
(,lit colle au mur).
Il n'y a pas de balayette pour nettoyer la cuvette des WC.

Petite chambre cosy et surtout très bien située
Pros:

Son emplacement proche du centre de Dublin. Tout etait accessible à pieds. Le calme de l établissement. Le côté naturel des matériaux. On s y sentait très bien. L excellent buffet de petit déjeuner.

Cons:

Bien que prévenu dans le descriptif de la chambre, l étroitesse de la chambre nous a un peu surpris et la difficulté d accès au lit. Pas de possibilité de faire le tour du lit. A déconseillé aux personnes qui ont des problèmes de dos. Obligation d enjamber son conjoint pour descendre du lit.
