The hotel is definitely a dorm. Expect your room to be a dorm room. There is no air conditioning. If you ask for a fan to use, depending who is at their counter. They will tell you that they got rid of them after COVID-19 and did not replace them. If you press harder and enough times, they will try to get one when it is turned in. There is a large bus garage right next door to the buildings so if you are on the outside on the right, your sleep will be disrupted and you are unable to leave the window open to cool things off because of the noise from the buses and the tram that passes on that side as well. The "common areas" during our stay in building K were never cleaned - there was leftover dishes, food, wine glasses, garbage all over the counters and in the sink. In two days, it was never cleaned. I would recommend you find another spot to stay. The trams running below the window stopped around midnight but started back up around five I think it was. It truly was terrible

Close to light rail tram BUT incredibly noisy and a dreadful bed. Basically student accommodation marketed unethically. Drunken louts disturb sleep. Even by Diblin standards very over priced. Owners are ripping off tourists. Would not recommend to anyone over 25 years of age

Bed was extremely uncomfortable. No amenities, not enough toilet paper or towels provided. Very small space. Extremely hot and dry at night and window opens over bed so you hit in it when getting up if you want to open it for some air. Way too expensive.

Nice and close to airport. Clean room. Bottom sheet not put on properly and I had to keep tugging at it to cover the mattress in the middle of the night. Also, staff didn’t tell us where the coffee and tea were and we had to search the building for it.

We had a terrible experience at this property. The room was uncomfortable, the bedding was just a top sheet over a bare mattress, there were stains that looked like blood on the walls, the one window wouldn’t open, so it was extremely stuffy. No window or vent in the bathroom so that was also awful. The shared areas of the kitchen and lounge were absolutely disgusting - overflowing with trash, smelly, flies everywhere, etc. there is nothing local nearby other than the train, which would make noise everytime it passed by. We were supposed to stay for 3 nights and left after one because it was so bad.

Stayed for August Bank Holiday with my boyfriend & went to the Robbie Williams gig at Crooke Park. This place was really lovely, we didn’t know what to expect after the reviews. Room was nice and clean , it is next to the tram so do keep this in mind if you struggle to sleep however didn’t bother us we hate sleeping when it is silent😂overall about a 30min walk into the city not to bad especially for the price difference from places in the city. Recommend if you want somewhere cheaper to stay

Good for what it is, but......

It was not clear to me when I booked my room at the Highfield House that it was essentially student lodging and i would not have made reservations there had I known. That said, for what it is, it is certainly adequate. The room and facilities (shared kitchen and lounge with television) were clean and well kept, the fitness center was well equipped and the hotel is about two minutes away from a tram that takes you to the city center. The price is also quite affordable. On the negative side, the bed is adequate for a single person or a skinny and very affectionate young couple, but for an over-fifty couple, it was quite uncomfortable. It is the size of one-and-a-half single beds and considerably smaller than a full bed. In addition, the sound of the aforementioned tram resonates throughout the housing complex well into the early morning hours and one is frequently disturbed by people making too much noise late into the night. Finally, the facility does not have central air conditioning and considering that we stayed there in the middle of the warm season, our room was generally too hot and humid for comfort. This forced us to keep our window open, which made the noise problem that much worse, The bottom line is that for young people travelling to Dublin on a limited budget, this is not a bad choice. However, folks who want or need a few more creature comforts would be well advised to look elsewhere.

Safe and good facilities

Bed was a bit uncomfortable, could feel the springs in the mattress. Overall the the space was good, great hanging and clothes storage space. Clean apart from the ‘splash back’ behind the desk needed a wipe and there was mold on the sealant in the shower. Great shower, lots of hot water. Well designed shower room, could have done with a small bath mat, we used a hand towel. Felt safe and secure. Kitchen facilities good. Great reception staff. Good value. Thanks

Modern, friendly - but not clean

We had a room towards the tram and the bus service center. A lot of noise all night. We also had problems with the cleanliness in one of the rooms, in the shred kitchen and also found used condoms in the shared entertainment room. The rooms was modern and the staff nice and friendly. Too bad it wasn’t clean… On the positive note it was very easy to reach central Dublin, either by tram or by a 20 min walk.

Taller travelers take note

The room was essentially a dorm room, clean, and the bathroom was in excellent condition. I'm 6'3 and if I was any taller I wouldn't fit in the bed as it was situated between the end of the desk and a wall. Tall travellers beware. Our thermostat in the room was stuck at 27 Celsius so it made for warm nights. Also, the side of the building we were on was right above a bus maintenance yard and the train station. Our sleep wasn't very good. Otherwise the location, staff, building and service were excellent.
