It is nothing like the photo's on the site. Expedia had it rated at 3.5 stars and it should be a 1/2 star. Very disappointed with the way expedia mislead the property. We paid way too much for what we got.

Though from outside the property looked dire, inside the hotel was entirely satisfactory, with rooms comfortable and well equipped. My room was two floors above the bar on the ground floor and remained noisy till after 3.30am. By far my biggest concern was the fire door just outside my room; it banged shut all night as other residents drifted in from their nighttime entertainment,

Pictures posted for this hotel are not of the hotel. Very misleading. 3 pictures are actually hotel pics. The front desk, the front entrance and the bathroom. All the other pics are not from this hotel. It’s old, floors are creating, door key is an actual key. Stairs with no elevator and small hallways that are hard to carry luggage through. After researching they the area it was found to be unsafe there. Would not advise. Staff was very friendly though

Great Hotel on a budget in central Dublin

Perfectly situated for the Aircoach stops in O’Connel Street. Clean, basic, friendly staff, good breakfast just around the corner from the hotel’s entrance. This is what you need for a few days in Dublin.

The Hotel had loud music playing until 2am and the room was not sound proofed and as people were leaving they would stand and talk/shout outside window. Possibly the worst night sleep in 2 months travelling and we needed to catch an early morning flight.

If you are getting a hotel to get sleep after a day in Dublin, this is not where you want to go! Fibbers Nightclub is right next door and when it closes the patrons congregate on the sidewalk and are extremely loud. The hotel could use some updating. Only one staff member was helpful, the remaining staff at the desk were not helpful and at times rude. No elevator so people are expected to get their luggage possibly to the third floor. No assistance from the males would help when we checked in. A female staff member did help with our bags. We lasted one night, checked out, took a taxi to a great hotel near the airport. We changed our flight and came home a week early.

Awful hotel. Do not stay here. It is above a nightclub that plays music until the early hours. Homeless people sleeping in the doorway to the hotel. Rooms stink of smoke and marijuana. Mold in the bathrooms. Hotel is not what is in the pictures

Great location but glad we were only there for one night. Nightclub under the hotel, playing heavy rock until 2.30 in the morning and then all the customers from the night club were talking and smoking under the bedroom window long after closing!!!

This was like an apt building with rooms for rent. Not Ada accessible, lots of stairs. The location is right next to a bar and bus stop. So the noise can be annoying. They had a fan but it was on a 2 hr timer. The floor was uneven under very threadbare carpet. I was a little scared I was going to fall through. If you are desperate it will do. But personally I won’t repeat the experience. The attendant was nice when I checked in but every time after that he seemed annoyed when I asked questions. Also, you have to be buzzed in, that should give you a clue…

Staff was wonderful!! The room was clean and the hotel was located in a very central area. We did have a car and they have parking validation for 50% off at a nearby parking garage. Word of warning... the hotel is above a VERY loud bar that is open late. Our room vibrated from the music and the door to their smoking section of the bar was right next to our room. The music was like clash of the death metal bands lol... but i guess it added to the experience? Luckily for me, the music didn't bother me and we slept with the tv on to cover a little bit of the music.... but if you have a hard time sleeping with loud music and people talking, you won't enjoy your stay. If you're a go with the flow person... laugh it off.. or go down and check out the bar.. it's very unique!
