Steps away from excellent pubs and an easy walk to the river, hop on hop off bus, etc.. Rooms are comfortable and clean. The building is old but nicely kept and clean. They serve a great breakfast. Great value here. Convenient to Paddywagon to embark on any single or multi day tours you might be considering.

Location was great, and the B&B is super quaint. There were just a couple things that could be improved to get full ratings. For example, one of the glasses in the room was really dirty. Also, fabric softener would do the towels a wonder. They could also update the lights in the bathrooms because they were dark and yellow.

Good location. Most of the staff were friendly. The room was initially really cold, so we had to get the staff to show us how to work the heater (wasn't immediately obvious). Some hot water, but not consistently.

Not worth it at all
Would never stay there again. Bad neighbourhood, bathroom was filthy, the water coming from the taps was a yellowish - brown in colour, my room backed on to an alley with constant truck traffic, so it was noisy. I literally left after an hour. Dropped my keys off, walked out the door and never came back. They got my money, but I didn't care, I was not going stay there any longer than I had to

Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place
Place was not clean. Found hair on the sink. Hot water didn’t work in the shower. Shower was so tiny I barely fit in there. The room was so cold. I tried turning up at the Heat and that didn’t work. Outlets behind the bed didn’t work. Lots of street noise. Had to go up seven flights of stairs with a 20 kilo bag. That wasn’t fun.

Great area, spacious room!
Located in a great area near shopping streets and not a far walk to Dublin Castle or other points of interest! We walked to everything and found the hotel pretty Central. A tad noisy because it's downtown but quiets near midnight, not outrageous. Room was bigger than I had expected for what European hotels were described to me as. Bed was fairly comfy.

Tour of Ireland
Very near by to train and bus stations. If you are joining the Paddy Wagon Tours, most convenient as pickup point Paddy Palace is just next to hotel. And within 15 mins walk to town city and shopping.

Convenient location, only a few minutes' walk to major sightseeing, Connolly Station, and tour departures. The room and facilities were clean upon our arrival, and the staff is very friendly, especially the adorable dog June that greets all of the guests. Our room and the hallways were in need of a little maintenance, but it was purely cosmetic and didn't interfere with our stay. A little new grout in the shower and a fresh paint job wouldn't hurt.

B&B was lovely but having a room in the basement below the road level wasn’t fantastic.
