Pros:

Excellent breakfast and location - despite you are in the city center, the rooms are quiet (window to the backyard), nice old hotel.

Cons:

In my room, the shower was very small, with a wet fabric shower curtain that kept sticking to my back while showering due to the draft from the door. Late in the evening, the water was only lukewarm, and the heating was not turned on until the last day of our stay. In the second room, shower gel was missing and was only refilled after several requests.

These are all minor issues, but unfortunately, they affect the overall impression of an otherwise beautiful hotel.

Cons:

Excellent location. Downside is that the room directly on the river was very noisy late in the night and early morning: not sufficiently soundproof

位置好，但环境吵闹
Pros:

1）地理位置绝对无敌，就在奥康奈尔桥的西侧（河的北岸），去temple bar非常方便，到市区内主要景点基本都是步行可达。2）房间较大，属于老四星的标准。3）住在不临河的那一侧是有电梯的。

Cons:

房间外没有景色且有噪音。最开始给我的房间是123，窗外就是一个巨大的发着噪音的机器，在我们提出睡眠不好希望更换一个安静些的房间之后，给换到了对门122房间，这个房间临着小巷子，在凌晨大约1-2点钟有垃圾车来收垃圾，把我和先生都吵醒了。一共三晚的住宿被吵醒了两晚，这还是我们向前台那位有一点胡须的大眼睛男士请求安排的安静房间……
