Marlin Hotel Stephens Green
The room was clean and neat and small. The bed took up half the room. There wasn't space for luggage so we placed the bags on the bed to change. Conveniently located close to St Stephen's Green park and Trinity College.

Clink i Lár
There were a lot of kids running around the hallway, screaming, and not being mindful to the other people’s who were staying in the same floor. But other than that, the staff was helpful, and the place was very accessible to the city.
