Great value for money, conveniently located

Room was tiny, clean, we had no windows in our room, hair dryer was on a different floor in a "beauty room", the corridors were quite dark and the rooms numbers were hard to see. The hotel was very conveniently located right at the underground and the price was very competitive and affordable.

Excellent.

Great, friendly helpful reception staff who were able to check us in a little earlier than 3 due to illness. Room was excellent in that the beds and pillows were very comfortable and spacious room with 2 double beds. Only small note was no switch to operate fan in bathroom. Not cheap but excellent location.

It was very hot while in Dublin and there is no a/c but they did provide a fan which did alleviate the uncomfortableness. Pool closes early for us 9:15. Breakfast was fair but expensive. Other than that a very comfortable place to stay.

Very helpful staff, held our bags in the lobby on arrival and departure. The room was clean and well kept. Located in a transport hotspot with a lovely bar and the river just down the street. The lobby is currently undergoing a refurbishment and a demolition site to the side of the hotel but we were not impacted by the noise etc of this. The room even had a fan which was especially needed in this hot weather. Thanks again!

Everything was great - except my sleep. The windows don't open much and there's no air conditioning. So overall it was always too warm in the room. The smell of the carpets was not exactly pleasant. Various homeless folks hung out at the area and making noises throughout the night, which occasionally woke me up. Worst though was that both mattress and pillows felt like filled with rocks - not just firm, but extremely hard and uncomfortable. This made it impossible to get a decent sleep throughout the entire week of my stay.

Self check-in……..not a fan.

Booked a one night stay with my adult son and daughter to attend a show at the Bord Gais theatre. We had limited time from check-in till the show started so we didn’t want any delays to give us time to grab a bite before the show. However when we arrived at the hotel I was directed to a self check-in machine that I was unfamiliar with and had a lot of sections to fill in, (even though there were 2 receptionists at the desk and no one else waiting to check-in). This took way more time than a check-in would, or should, normally take, putting us under pressure…………not a great start to our evening. The restaurant, bar and breakfast staff were lovely as was the food. Rooms very nice and comfy beds but we were roasting with the heat of the room and there was no air conditioning so not a great sleep. There was a desk-top electric fan left in the room but there was 3 of us so we had to pick which of us got the benefit of it.
