Location
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Our room was in the first floor, and the day(especially night time)was very hot so we wanted to open the window but it seemed like not safety or calming.

Bra!
Pros:

Läget

Cons:

Usel ventilation. Rummet som en bastu trots en liten fläkt i fönstret. Ingen ost till frukost, lite snålt med tanke på priset.

Gewoon ok
Pros:

Goede lokatie en vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Bij aankomst waren we te vroeg maar we konden wel een pre-check-in doen en onze koffers veilig kwijt.

Lokatie van het Hotel was fantastisch in het centrum.

Cons:

Het was buitengewoon warm in Dublin, en de kamer had geen airco. Personeel had wel een ventilator voor ons neer gezet. Maar de kamer was alsnog heet.

Het hotel is wel wat gedateerd.

Un luogo storico in pieno centro
Pros:

La struttura è molto particolare, con uno stile retrò che non trovi da nessuna altra parte.

La colazione abbondante e abbastanza varia (soprattutto la parte salata).

Posizione top, ad un passo da Temple Bar, e ad una breve passeggiata di distanza dal Trinity College e da St. Patrick's Church.

Ottimamente servita dal trasporto pubblico: autobus, Dublin Express e tram sono vicinissimi, la stazione Connolly a 15 minuti a piedi.

La camera era abbastanza grande e affacciandosi sul retro era silenziosa, cosa non banale in quella posizione.

Cons:

Il bagno avrebbe proprio bisogno di inteventi di rinnovamento, dimostra tutti i suoi anni.

La zona, centralissima, ha diversi problemi con i senzatetto.

Pros:

La posizione è spettacolare, in centro, vicino ad ogni attrazione; la colazione è stata squisita e abbondante, con ogni genere di cibo dal salato al dolce.

Cons:

La camera è sprovvista di frigorifero. Il tipo di hotel deve avere il frigo in camera.
