The bathroom is large and clean but the shower just dribbles and there was no hot water. The outside unfortunately is a little neglected which is off putting when you arrive - but once you adjust and accept that this is budget accommodation it is fine and does what is needed!

The bedroom with its own bathroom was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The lodge is good for an overnight stay. The lodge is very central, short walking distance to the main shopping area and public transport. There is parking and there is also street parking. When we arrived after 6.00 p.m. there was a door code provided to us over the phone to open the door and once inside there was a key box inside the breakfast room for our room - all very straight forward. This is a budget styled, very old fashioned accommodation - one needs to be prepared for that.

Did not realize when I booked 2 rooms for 4 nights, that we would be sharing the bathroom & shower with 12 other rooms. The hallways and stairs were carpeted and it smelled musty. Thank goodness the bedrooms had wood floors.

Close proximity to stores, restaurants and sea. A parking spot was included in price.

Sharing a bathroom / toilet wasn't great, but we had no problems with waiting for people to vacate to let us use it so in the end it wasn't a huge issue.

The location of the Lodge was perfect for our visit. The room was clean and large, ideal for us. The shower / bathroom was clean also and the property is in a quiet street.

For the price point, there really is nothing to complain about.

Great location for the price.

Great location and local feel! Perfect for tourists who want easy access to transport and walking distance to views of the sea.

Unfortunately the water only dribbled out of the shower and the tap, consequently it took 40 minutes to wash my hair - I wouldn't stay again unless I knew that was resolved. It was painful. Also underneath the carpet floor just before the bathroom the flooring underneath gave way and I took a little tumble so that should be fixed.

The bed was really nice and very comfortable, I had a great night's sleep. A couple of chocolate croissants in the room was a lovely touch. Well located.

A tiny suggestion for additional comfort: a little rug on the cold wooden floor beside the bed would gain the approval of bare feet :-)

Excellent location. Very clean. Host personable and helpful.

The room could have been a bit more clean and there was a strong smell of cigarette when we arrived.

Perfect location at just 5 minutes from the main road with shops and all facilities. The room was nice with all the necessities.

No breakfast, I did not book breakfast when booking. I thought I could ask for breakfast when I arrived the evening before but told there would be no breakfast

Room good . Very clean.

The owner very kindly helped us change a flat tyre.

There’s not much in the way of soundproofing so it’s easy to hear what’s going on in the next room over.

Great location - a few minutes’ walk from Dún Laoghaire town centre, only a little further to the lovely villages Sandycove and Monkstown, and the DART (suburban rail) will get you to Dublin in 30 minutes. The rooms are simple but have everything I need. Not all are ensuite but not a dealbreaker for me. Nice touch of pain au chocolat per guest left with the coffee and tea supplies: in the days when you often don’t get biscuits any longer in hotels, a little treat with the morning coffee goes a little way.
