Stayed one night in a triple room with two girlfriends. Was nice and central for shops and bars, easy to get to and from. On the hottest weekend this year the room way very warm at night, but a fan was provided and exhausted from a days shopping, drinking and dining made for a good nights sleep.Clean, cheap and cheerful...

Definitely can't complain about the location, but I guess we should have realised the noise would be...noisy. Firstly, picking up the keys from the other hotel is a bit of a pain, as no lift means you have to carry luggage up an extra flight of stairs and back down - wasn't expecting that. Then I had to change room,... More

We knew going into it the room would be small and outdated, but it was clean and in a great location and reasonably priced for Dublin. We knew we wouldn't be in the room much--so it didn't matter. Needed to pick up/drop off keys at Kelly's Hotel just a few buildings down. More

My boyfriend and I were very pleasantly surprised! We had read previous reviews on here and so were not expecting too much. We went with it though as the price was right and could not complain about location! When we arrived, Kelly's Hotel (where you check in) was right next door so dont see what the problem was there or... More

Well....all my partner and I could do is LAUGH! The place was run down covered up by very odd wall paper! Bright orange with different colour glitter rings of lighter orange and purple! The noise was....well it wouldnt have been any more quiet sleeping on the pavement! The stairs feels like it is going to collapse at any moment! By... More

According to the website, it seemed to be a nice hotel... but in fact, we had a terrible experience. First night, it was like sleeping in the street. The window are so thin that you could hear any noise from the street, and the street is one of the noisiest of Dublin. Furthermore, there was a water leak from the... More

Aside from all the facts already given such as no lift, no AC, checkin in different building, breakfast in a different location as well, this place was disgusting! It's noisy with the windows open, which you need because it's so hot upstairs. Bathroom is gross, took forever to get hot water, wouldn't walk around in bare feet because floors so... More

The location couldn't be better. FOr the price we didn't expect much but were still let down. Found this in a travel book described as funky but it is really just run down. Room was clean. Bed was hard. Carpet is worn. Walls are marked and wallpaper is peeling. Breakfast was included but was just cereals and bread with yogurt... More

Very central and the rooms were clean. But tired looking rooms with crumbling tiles in the bathroom, cracks in the walls, peeling paint, stains in the carpet. Honestly I don't want to stay some place that looks worse than my living accommodations. But at 74 euros a night in central Dublin I guess this is what it buys you. Good... More
