Great price and location. Great facilities. The only problem I have is they took a €100 payment off my card instead of a €100 hold and now I have to wait days for it to go back on my card or even be told when it is getting refunded.

Despite it being a self check in and out and a bit of confusion at the start, it was a lovely large room, more like a large bedsit, immaculate and great shower, 5 mins walk to Grafton Street. Ill be back.

Great Studio. Poor communication from Hotels.com

My stay was very good. The accommodation exceeded my exceptions and good value. However the poor communication to me from Hotels.com regarding the checkin procedure & security deposit left me out in the rain before getting into my room. Had it not been for the staff at the hotel guiding me it would have taken longer. The Hotel and staff were great. Hotels.com not so much.

Was locked out of the building before I could check in. Worst experience Ive ever had with a hotel. Refusing to refund me after not letting me in to the room. Never using Expedia again.

The hotel is unmanned and (at least if booking thtough Expedia, which I did) there is no way to contact them in a timely manner outside of Expedia email system. They sent me a message the day before my check in saying that they would send me a separate email with the code to the door (since there would be no one on site for check in). I was oversease at the moment, and tried to contact them but as mentioned, I had to do it by sending an email throguh Expedia. An automated reply said that it would take around 24 hours for me to get a reply. The hotel sent me the code to the door the day AFTER my check in. My reservation was only for one night so yeah, I can't comment on cleanliness or conditions of the facility since I NEVER saw it. They did take my money though. Thieves.

Great accommodation, irritating check in

A lovely stay in high standard accommodation. A good location too away from the immediate noise and crowds but still within walking distance of everything. The room was large. The check in was very poor though, when we got there we discovered we should have been sent pre information and also had to pay a security deposit outside of our booking app through a random payment tool. After making phone calls and payment we were allowed to check in. The communication should have been better and I resent paying a deposit outside of our booking app.

Quite quirky rooms with interesting layouts. It doesn't feel very secure when travelling alone with no key lock, or chain lock on the doors (there were 2 connecting doors to my room). Bed was very comfortable, shower was great and had everything I needed in the kitchen. Check in was fine as others said it was difficult but once you follow the instructions it's pretty simple. Rooms a little on the cool side with breezes through the vents but this didn't bother me too much.
