I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was superb, just a stone's throw from Temple Bar, making it perfect for exploring Dublin’s nightlife. However, the room felt cramped and in need of some upkeep. The service was hit or miss; while some staff were very helpful, others seemed indifferent. Overall, it offers great value for the location, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.

I stayed at this hotel for one night and honestly, I was relieved it was just for that short time. The rooms were quite small and felt a bit depressing, and the service had its ups and downs. However, the location is fantastic, right in the heart of Temple Bar, making it easy to explore the area. There are some good dining options nearby, which is a plus, but overall, I felt the value for money wasn't quite there.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, but it wasn't without its hiccups. The rooms were nice and clean, which is a big plus. The staff was friendly and tried their best, especially since our room wasn't ready when we arrived. The location is a winner, right in the heart of the city, but the overall atmosphere felt a bit tired. For the price, I expected a bit more, but I appreciated the effort made by the staff.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was absolutely great, right in the heart of Dublin and close to major sightseeing areas, making it perfect for exploring the city. However, the rooms left much to be desired; they were small and not as clean as I hoped. The service was somewhat lacking, as staff seemed more focused on themselves than on assisting guests. Overall, it’s a decent spot for a city break, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

I had a decent stay overall. The hotel is centrally located, making it super convenient to explore Dublin, especially the nightlife in Temple Bar. The rooms were a bit stuffy, which made sleeping a challenge at times, and I felt that the breakfast could’ve been better. However, the friendly staff definitely made up for the minor issues during my stay.

I stayed at this hotel recently and found its location to be fantastic, right in the heart of Temple Bar with quick access to city sights. While the staff was friendly and welcoming, the rooms left much to be desired in terms of comfort and cleanliness. There were some issues like a sink that wouldn’t drain and a lack of hot water. Overall, it's a mixed bag with a great location but rooms that could definitely use some improvement.
