The was ok. I didn’t spend much time in the hotel and primarily used it just to sleep. There a bit of a smell to the hotel but I assume that it was just because it’s a very old building. There was also no step free access so if you have mobility issues or a lot of heavy luggage I wouldn’t recommend. If your planning short stay and don’t mind a lot of stairs then this might work for you.

First the staff is super friendly and helpful. The place is an old fashion hotel of 50 years ago (building is about 200 years old). Rooms are efficient and have plenty of tea/Coffee available. Though no breakfast is served, but a place nearby serves breakfast. Close to the center of town. The street is rather unsafe with dopers around. We had one that annoyed us following us around.

We arrived at the hotel and found a locked reception door. It took several minutes for anyone to answer the reception bell. While we waited, we were approached by several people asking for money and other things. The hallway to our room was dirty and smelled like old urine and pot smoke. We left and looked for another hotel.

Was good fun would do it again
Good location, 24 service so you can go and enjoy the nightlife. Don’t remember coming back a couple of nights but I woke up in the bed safe and sound. Went just to experience Dublin. Bar downstairs open till 2:30 each day but not too noisy from hotel room.

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this hotel. It is an old building, but the beds were comfy and clean. We have been travelling around Europe for 2 weeks (staying in cheap hotels) and I would say this was my favourite stay.

Good enough if you're looking somewhere central, very loud at the weekend but over all perfect if you're not planning to be in the hotel often.
