Great desk people. Clean. Good kitchenette. Only huge issue was the heat kept coming on despite us turning DOWN the thermostat. It was literally roasting in our room all night. Had to actually open the patio door in sub 40’s weather during the night to get any sleep. 2 of the worst sleep nights we’ve had in a long time.

Comfy, but noisy
Our room faced the open air bar/club next door so we could hear that noise late into the night. Shower was a bit banged up/missing grout & the only toiletry supplied was a hair & body wash combo. Staff was great, room was clean, we got into our room early & they stored our luggage after check-out as we had a late day flight. Bars & restaurants in the area & Dublin is very walkable.

This was a great location to easily walk to all the major areas of Dublin. There are tons of food and drink options nearby as well. The property was clean and well maintained. The walls are VERY thin though, so we heard all our neighbors throughout the night. But overall the stay was good.

I enjoyed the view. It was yards from where the bus from the airport dropped me off which was so helpful in city center. I could see the tall spire on the street which helped me navigate back to hotel easily
