8/10 Good
"The hotel was super-close to everything in the Temple Bar area without being in the middle of the noise and chaos. We had a side street-facing room, which was probably quieter than the ones facing the main road and canal. The lobby isn’t much. More of a small entryway, really, but the staff was nice and we enjoyed the attached restaurant and nightly live music. The biggest downside was the size of the room. It was so small that the two of us were constantly having to maneuver around each other and move our luggage around since there was no storage space. The over all condition of the hotel was worn and tired. Lots of bangs and scrapes along the walls and furniture, and the television only worked sporadically. All that said, we were busy exploring the city and really just used the room for sleeping and showering, and for that purpose it was fine."

"The property is well located in Dublin, close to attractions and shopping. The room was well appointed, and the kitchen was better than expected as the microwave was a combination convection unit with a browning element, so no conventional oven needed. The room was extremely quiet too."
