Pros:

Great location, decent price, clean. Would stay again.

Comodo ma senza troppe pretese
Pros:

L'hotel è in una posizione comodissima, a due passi dal centro e c'è anche in bel pub che offre spesso belle serate con musica dal vivo. Il personale è gentile e la colazione è buona.

Cons:

La stanza non corrispondeva affatto a quella mostrata sul sito. Pulizia non proprio eccelsa, e in camera non c'erano nemmeno delle prese usb, quindi abbiamo dovuto comprare un adattatore. Non veniva fornita nemmeno una bottiglia di acqua in camera. In compenso il caffè solubile c'era.

Dublin- eine tolle Städtereise
Pros:

Die Lage ist Mega- direkt an der O'Conell Street, direkt am Fluss auf Höhe der Half Penny Bridge. Auf der anderen Seite vom Fluss ist direkt das Vergnügungsviertel.
Im Haus direkt ist ein eigener Pub mit täglicher Live Musik. Ausserdem gibt es täglich die Möglichkeit eine Irish Dance Show mit einem Mehrgänge Menü zu buchen.
Das Hotel wurde renoviert, das heißt die Gänge und Zimmer wurden gestrichen, die Teppiche sind neu.
Nicht erneuert wurden die Möbel, die etwas altbacken und abgeranzt sind. Die Bäder sind auch nicht mehr die Neuesten, aber es funktioniert alles und ist vor allem sauber.
Übrigens hält der Flughafen Bus fast vor der Tür und viele öffentliche Busse vor der Tür oder in unmittelbarer Nähe.
Ach ja Frühstück ist vollkommen io. Bucht es mit- vor Ort kostet es 18,50€ pro Person.

Cons:

Eigentlich haben nur die etwas altbackenen Möbel gestört, aber bei einem Dublin Trip schläft man ja eh nur im Zimmer.

Καλή στο χώρο εφιάλτης στο wc!
Pros:

Η τοποθεσία πολύ καλή!

Cons:

Απαράδεκτο το μπάνιο. Θυμίζει δεκαετία 40. Πρώτη φορα βλέπω στον νιπτήρα 2 βρύσες δίπλα-δίπλα μια για ζεστό και μια για κρύο!! Δηλαδή στην μια παθαίνεις έγκαυμα και στην αλλη κρυώνεις! Στην ντουζιέρα ακόμα χειρότερα! Δυο βρύσες πάλι ίδιες, δίπλα δίπλα και 5 πόντους απο τον τοίχο! Δεν χωράς να πλύνεις ούτε τα χέρια σου κσι το κυριώτερο!! Δεν έχει σπιραλ με κεφαλή ντούζ χειρός! Αν δηλαδή θες να κάνεις μπιντέ αναγκαστικά πλένεσαι ολοκληρος και αν είσαι γυναίκα, υποχρεωτικά ξαναβρέχεις τα μαλλιά σου. ΑΠΑΡΑΔΕΚΤΟ!! ΑΝ ΔΕΝ ΚΑΝΟΥΝ ΑΝΑΚΑΙΝΗΣΗ ΤΑ ΜΠΑΝΙΑ ΜΑΚΡΙΑ!!!
