Pros:

Location was convenient for us. Breakfast was pretty good.

Cons:

Didn’t sleep very well here. The pillows were too high and the duvet was suffocatingly heavy. Also, the fire alarm malfunctioned and woke us up at 6:30am.

Great and comfortable stayed.
Pros:

We stayed 6 nights.Located within 15–30 minutes’ walk to entertainment spots and major attractions in Dublin city centre. The hotel offers great rooms and very helpful, friendly reception staff.

If housekeeping service is needed, guests must inform the front desk in advance.

The location is quiet and safe for walking around. Having the Luas tram/subway station right beside the hotel is a big plus. A short walk ahead brings you to the main street along the River Liffey and Dublin Port.

Highly recommended.

Cons:

The room drywall is quite thin, so you can easily hear neighbors talking and taking showers. During our stay, the noise from doors slamming was also noticeable.

Clean, comfortable stay with friendly staff and a great location.
Pros:

We had a great 2-night stay on our first trip to Ireland. The staff were welcoming and helpful, the hotel was clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect with easy tram access and a nice walk into the city centre. We’d definitely stay here again! :)

Pros:

Great location just a short walk outside the city centre or 3 tram stops.
Comfortable mattresses and calm area.
Clean, good breakfast.

Cons:

The room was too small for 3 people, and the double bed too small (I’d say 140 cm large)
You need to hang the sign at the door for have the room « refreshed » or to ask for proper cleaning at the reception.
Despite the « refresh » sign being hung every day, our bed was only made once throughout the stay.
