Comfy, good deal.
Pros:

Very clean and nice, stayed on a weekend but the only noise was people outside the pub at a normal chatting volume nothing crazy - they all drifted away come 30 minutes after closing. Really comfy and lovely bathroom.

Cons:

I know they do tell you there isn’t any breakfast or food offered, but it would be even better if they did! Even just a cursory pastry or something wouldn’t go amiss.

Lovely hotel in nice area
Pros:

The location. Quiet and nice area. Easy walk to the city center. As for breakfast, walk to the Forbes street ( just a block away , direction Docks). A lot of cafes and very nice area to explore. Staff were very nice and friendly. Loved the river view and the pub. It was not hot in the room at all! Easy sleepers might want to use earplugs. All in all this hotel was the best one during our stay!!!

Cons:

Loved everything

It was quaint and downtown in the middle of a bustling Dublin.
Pros:

The price and location were good

Cons:

I had no forewarning that there is no elevator and I, a 75 yo woman with bad balance, had to drag a 40lb suitcase up 3 flights of narrow steep stairs. The description of the facility needs to make sure paying guests know this before booking.
