10/10 Exceptional

The staff here is exceedingly lovely and helpful - all shifts at that. The room was far beyond my expectations for what I paid (you truly never know in a Dublin hotel) and in fact was just a great room with comfortable bedding, enough space to put my luggage, and small desk for working/prepping for the day. Clean bathroom with excellent hot water. Location is great too - right by the Post Office, a quick jaunt to the usual haunts in Temple Bar, the Quays, the Liberties, etc. Looking forward to my next stay!

Really liked this hotel, a great, affordable option in the heart of Dublin. Right off the main drag, the hotel is quiet but still within walking distance of the centre. Staff were very helpful and there was always plenty of them to help. The hotel was modern and spotless, rooms were very well kept with tea and coffee facilities as well. There was a large seating area as well as a bar/restaurant and coffee shop on site. Really loved this hotel, got it for a decent price whilst attending an event at Croke Park, highly recommend!
