Comfortable stay
Quick and easy check in. Hotel a bit dated and very warm in the corridors, however stay was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our short stay. Location excellent and close to everything.

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this hotel. It is an old building, but the beds were comfy and clean. We have been travelling around Europe for 2 weeks (staying in cheap hotels) and I would say this was my favourite stay.

Good value for money
Good enough if you're looking somewhere central, very loud at the weekend but over all perfect if you're not planning to be in the hotel often.

Very nice area in terms of getting to places. However our main issue with the stay was that we weren’t allowed to bring any tarts back to the room. I’d be more understanding if we warned before however we only found out when we were trying to bring two jezzys to the room. I’d definitely stay again when I return in the future.

Good location, 24 service so you can go and enjoy the nightlife. Don’t remember coming back a couple of nights but I woke up in the bed safe and sound. Went just to experience Dublin. Bar downstairs open till 2:30 each day but not too noisy from hotel room.

Better than you would expect
For a 1-star and low price-option, the hotel was very clean and the staff very friendly and accommodating. And the location is great. I would definitely consider staying there again if I go back to Dublin.

First the staff is super friendly and helpful. The place is an old fashion hotel of 50 years ago (building is about 200 years old). Rooms are efficient and have plenty of tea/Coffee available. Though no breakfast is served, but a place nearby serves breakfast. Close to the center of town. The street is rather unsafe with dopers around. We had one that annoyed us following us around.

Liked: Cleanliness
The was ok. I didn’t spend much time in the hotel and primarily used it just to sleep. There a bit of a smell to the hotel but I assume that it was just because it’s a very old building. There was also no step free access so if you have mobility issues or a lot of heavy luggage I wouldn’t recommend. If your planning short stay and don’t mind a lot of stairs then this might work for you.
