Amazing staff, fabulous location, slightly...

Liked: Everyone I met at the Baggot Court Townhouse radiated warmth, friendliness, and efficiency. The staff go above and beyond the call of duty and are model employees. They couldn’t have been more ready to help, more thoughtful, or more considerate. For example, the various members of the reception team whom I met went out of their way to help me negotiate the property’s stairs and floors in order to spare me lugging around my heavy and unwieldy suitcase. And on my last day, they were patience incarnate. I was allowed stash the suitcase for an extended period in the reception area. (They even put up with an extended attempt of my part to lessen its weight by extracting and rearranging items.) What is more, as somebody who stayed at various points—in post-college years—in the Baggot Street area, staying in the Townhouse reminded me of all that’s central, historic, fascinating, and lively about this part of Dublin. The property has invested time and trouble in ensuring that a visitor knows about the significance of 92 Lwr Baggot St.: ample information (framed pages from newspapers, etc.) can be perused on the walls of the hallways and stairs.
Disliked: The Townhouse is not going to win any awards for treating guests to up-to-the-minute décor, furniture, and overall style. While scrupulously clean throughout, an abundance of beige, some unfortunate plastic flowers on prominent window sills, and (adjoining my bedroom) a rather curious mini-kitchen with a somewhat cheap and dated mini-fridge (between bedroom and en-suite bathroom) does send a guest back in time a bit (whiffs of the 1970s and 80s).
