Liked: DO NOT STAY HERE… NO A/ C, MANY hidden charges, Beds were like BOARDS!!!! Hardest we have EVER slept on!!!
Disliked: No A/C!!!!BEDS WERE TERRIBLE!!!Hidden fees and charges

Had a brilliant stay.Would definitely...

Liked: Location was good especially having a supermarket next door and lovely Chinese takeaway around the corner.If you wanted to go into the city it was around 30 minutes to walk but we caught a taxi which came right outside the hotel.Staff friendly and helpful, nice room,bed really comfortable and breakfast delicious with plenty of choice.
Disliked: Could do with a small fridge in the room as it was hot when we were there and drinks we bought were warm but otherwise perfect.

Very good

Amazing hotel with the friendliest...

Liked: Lovely staff and very accommodating
Disliked: Slight walk from temple bar

No air conditioning in hotel

Liked: The room was very spacious for my family of 3 with a double bed and a single bed. Washroom was also spacious and clean. It's just a 5 mins walk from River Liffey and approximately 20 min walk to O connell street and other attractions. There are also cafes and supermarkets nearby for our convenience. The staff were friendly and gladly obliged to put requests like sending up an additional desk fan for the room.
Disliked: The whole hotel is not air conditioned. While there is a light breeze at night, in the day, it can get quite hot and stuffy in the room. That being said, when the temp drops at night, with the window open and fans in our room, the sleep was still considerably comfortable. Would highly recommend choosing another hotel with air con if you are one to feel hot easily.

Overall disappointing, unlikely to return

Liked: Hotel was located in a convenient spot
Disliked: We booked this hotel because of the “Deluxe” quadruple room and looked perfect for our needs. Upon arrival we were informed of a €150 deposit that was needed for paying in cash - something we were not informed prior to arriving nor any explanation as to why this was. When we got to the room, it appeared to be a lot smaller than, and didn’t have the same facilities as, the room depicted online at the time of booking. Temperature in the room was almost unbearable with only one small window to open and one fan in a family room. We weren’t once asked about our stay at the hotel when checking out and just thanked for handing back the key cards.
