“Bedbugs, beware!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012 via mobile

person found this review helpful

The apartments look nice, but examine them a little more closely and there are some serious issues.

Pros: They are well-furnished, quiet and secure. There is undercover parking provided (at €14 a day) and a 24 hour reception.

Cons: the shower system is, as mentioned many times, outdated and inadequately timed for a multiple-occupancy complex. You will get one decent shower per apartment per day unless you are willing to have everyone wait two hours between washes.

Secondly, the level of cleaning is patchy. Whilst our apartment seemed mostly clean there were some thick dark stains on areas of the curtains, skirting and floors. I guess that is forgivable but...

The biggest issue? BEDBUGS!
Both I and my fellow guest woke up with bedbug bites all over our bodies. Of course no business would ever admit liability for such a thing but it is the first place on my travels that I have encountered the beasties, and it took just longer than 24 hours for the problem to manifest. Our stay was far too lengthy for there to be another culprit.

You have been warned.

“Flexible, clean, great value, ideal location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012 via mobile

Ideal for a short stay in Dublin without the constraints and expense of city centre hotels.
located a 5 min walk from O Connell street, temple bar and other city centre attractions.
Rooms were clean and apartment was a nice size. For a group of 7 an ensuite or extra toilet would have helped although ensuite apartments are available.
For the price we paid, I considered these great value. Will be staying here again.

“Fantastic location for a drinking holiday”

I was very happy with the apartment. Though you may find that taxi drivers don't know the address. The apartment is in a fantastic location, round the corner from the Temple Bar pub and variouae other pubs. A handy cafe directly opposite that does takeaways. My favorite feature was the bathroom. Very spaciouse with a proper shower and a bath! It really was a nice apartment and I would definetly stay again. I would recommend this apartment for anyone looking for a drinking and pub crawling holiday!!! =)

“What a brilliant place to stay.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

Just got back from my daughter's hen party and we all had a thoroughly good time. The apartments are in a great position for town. There were eight in our party with ages ranging from 24 to 53 and we all had a great time.
The apartments were well furnished and very well equipped. The only thing that was a bit of nightmare was one bathroom between five young women. We managed just fine by the younger ones using the 'olds' bathroom whilst we were in the pub!
Would definitely recommend these apartments and will stay their again when I go again.

“Great Stay in Dublin”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Just arrived back from a 40th Birthday Celebration with the "girls". The apartments are very spacious with good security arrangements. (We stayed in a two bedroom one bathroom). I would not recommend preparing a three course gormet dinner in the kitchen but it was certainly adequately equipped for toast breakfasts and takeaways. The bedroom carpets could do with a little clean and three girls do need more than six coat hangers between them!! The bedroom lighting is a little subdued which makes applying make-up difficult or a queue for the bathroom! Overall though, the standard of the accommodation was good, reception staff very friendly and location spot on. We were lucky enough to be there for the Tradfest weekend and were treated to some fabulous irish dancing and music especially in The Arlington. Check out the cocktail bar at The Clarence, great barman! Would not recommend Copper Jacks Night Club unless you are very young and don't mind being glared at by drunken males!
