    The room is small but that is very common for a place like this - it fills its function perfectly.

    This place is perfect for a stopover in Dublin. It is super clean and the hostess has thought of everything you might need in terms of toiletries in the bathroom and a kettle and tea/coffee in the room. The standard is basic but everything is made beautiful and carefully arranged. The place feels very safe. The check in/check out is very smooth. Near the center and airport buses etc.

    Perfect for my short trip, super nice staff and host! Great location in the city center, everythings nearby, bus stops etc., still very quiet because the apartment is located in a small side street.

    Mattress was uncomfortable. Would have like an earlier check in . 4pm is quite late considering the checkout was 10 am.

    The location is excellent. Good communication from owner. Easy to check in . Shared bathroom was clean and had clear instructions on how to operate shower.

    It was pretty poor isolation but quiet times are from 23:00-08:00. Everyone followed this well so I was not disturbed. The door were a bit clunky to open to the bedroom and bathroom.

    Exactly like the pictures. Really good location without having to deal with bar noises! Clean and comfortable bedroom and shower.

    If someone is staying in the room above you, you can hear all their steps. The shared bathroom is not very convenient, but the bathroom itself is good.

    Clear and easy self check in. Amazing location - near city centre, but quiet at night. Price is much better than any place in a similar location. You can find a power adapter, towel and kettle in the room, which is very convenient. Very clean.

    My room was right next to the bathroom. As the house is poorly soundproofed, the noises from the bathroom were clearly audible.

    Check in was very well explained and worked smoothly. Good location close to the city centre, just 10 minutes to walk to the Grafton Street. An adapter for EU plugs was offered. A curiosity on the side: I could see the sunrise from my bed. This only happens a few days a year and of course only when the weather is right, but I was still delighted to see the sun rise over the rooftops

    The kettle in the room was appreciated but it had to be moved to the floor as the lead was incredibly short.

    Excellent location. Good communication from the host. Clean room and facilities. I noticed as I was leaving that wifi was available (clearly indicated in the room but I missed it) - although the main description of the property states that it wasn't available. It was near the Airport Express bus stop too.

    The only minor issue was that the phone number listed on the booking (as of the end of December 2024) wasn't valid. I couldn't make a call, and one man was stuck outside because the phone number was incorrect, and he didn't have a smartphone to connect through the booking app. I helped him, but the overall situation was quite bad.

    I was surprised by the high quality of everything for such a small price (I paid around 60 euros per night for a private room). I really, really appreciated the attention to detail and the little things. For example, there was a heater and some tea and water in my room, as well as pads and cotton pads in the bathroom. There were also some kitchen essentials provided. And lots of small details made the interior feel more atmospheric and stylish.

    Just be aware it's a private room in a shared house. You might find other people talking and will hear others walking up and down the stairs. But you won't be bothered. I did look around and you may get a better value/more private room for the price, but not a bad experience at all.

    Excellent location, kind host, comfortable and private room, no issues! Perfect for a short stay.

    I think it may be better if its stated during booking that one should call the host to know how to get in, it said on my booking I would be sent a picture.

    The quietest nights sleep I ever had while staying in Dublin. Price was great for a comfy bed near enough to everything I wanted to do. The art in the room was also very nice, and it was very quiet, no trams or anything noising outside!

    There was a block close to it that I wasn’t sure felt safe, but I didn’t know the area well enough.

    Very small single bedroom. Easy access to everything needed in Dublin. I did not meet the host, but she was very communicative. She helped me get an early which I really appreciated. Was there only for a couple days, but it was a location with Tesco close to it, which was also helpful.

    Nothing not to like, but be aware this a single room in a "standard house" so although the room is yours, other people are sharing the house. The room is not en-suite, there is a shared bathroom.

    The venue is central in Dublin in a quiet street. The room was clean and functional. The room can be locked. The host has made an effort to ensure the room is functional and you can also use the kitchen.
