"Nice clean rooms no issues. However, the checkin process was not very organized-we arrived at 310pm and said comeback at 4pm their normal checkin as the room wasn't ready??? When I came back at 4pm there were 10 other guests in line ahead of me probably told the same thing and took 30 minutes to get to our room. If they allowed checkins earlier there wouldn't have been this delay for all guests."

The location is excellent: right in the heart of the city, yet just far enough away where it’s convenient, yet quiet. Next time in Dublin, I know where I’ll be booking!"
