Location is good, friendly helpful staff.
Pros:

Location is excellent and staff were kind and friendly. Has attached bar serving all food and breakfasts, etc. Also live music. Price is great for it's location. Has a lift to all floors. Covered outdoor seating. Lots of information and tours, and you can leave your bags if you need to go out and see places. It's a nice place and good value for money, just book ahead ot you'll end up with smaller rooms like we did. I would book again too.

Cons:

The twin room we had booked was nothing like what we got, but it was the last room, so fair enough and also was a late booking due to us being let down elsewhere. When we double checked, the pics on the site shows the room, so it wasn't misinformation, more a case of unlucky was last twin. ?? Bed by window! And it was not a comfortable bed and in need of dumping. Rattled and mattress lumpy. Surprised a bed is allowed to be next to a window of single glass. Other bed was fine.

Terribile
Pros:

Unica nota positiva la posizione centrale a Temple Bar.

Cons:

Il bagno è fatiscente con aspiratore non funzionante, scarico wc non fissato al muro e vasca mal ridotta.
L'illuminazione della camera è scarsa e con l'abat-jour del comodino lampeggiante.
Le finestre della camera non sono isolanti e fanno passare il gran rumore della strada e dei locali adiacenti.
Vengono forniti dei tappi per le orecchie ma certamente non possono essere messi ad un bambino di 2 anni.
Le tende delle finestra della camera coprono a malapena le finestre e la notte, con i fari delle facciate posti vicino alle finestre, non coprono la luce esterna.

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.

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.
