    All things considered, I had a pleasant stay and was satisfied with the experience at the hotel.

    Since the hotel doesn't have an elevator, guests should be prepared to carry their luggage up the stairs.

    The hotel’s location suited my needs perfectly. The room was cleaned daily. The surrounding area was lively and convenient, with plenty of restaurants, bars, and supermarkets nearby.

    The bed was not very comfortable, woke up rather stiff and sore. Room was small (single bed), so for the price point didn’t seem to be the best value. OK for maybe a night but wouldn’t choose to stay multiple nights again.

    Nice area, quiet and walkable. Clean room.

    I found the hotel room door tricky to lock when leaving the room. The bathroom was a little dated but everything worked.

    Liked the layout of the hotel, with a great looking bar downstairs, Reception room just to the right as you walk in. Lovely building. Coming back late at night was no problem, staff were friendly.

    There isn’t anything to not like.

    A place that locals enjoy but close enough to walk to the tourist attractions. I loved the outside patio and the bar downstairs was perfect.

    If I really had to make a comment, and I'm doing it solely to fill this box, the building could use a facelift. On the inside, however, since I'm not a fan of carpeting, if I were the owner, this would also be something I'd revisit, but again, it's subjective.

    I liked: the neighborhood, the room and bathroom, the bar, the food they serve, the kindness of the staff, the cleanliness, the garden. There are good cafes, pubs, restaurants, and pizzerias nearby. The neighborhood is quiet and not noisy at all, so you can stroll around in the evenings without worry. I'll gladly return on my first visit.

    The room was really warm and there wasn't any way to cool the room down but it wasn't that big of an issue for us and it didnt make us that uncomfortable.

    The hotel was clean and nice. The staff were so helpful and friendly. We went for an event at the aviva stadium and the hotel couldn't have been more convenient.

    At the weekend, breakfast wasn’t served until 8.00am. Unfortunately on a Sunday we were booked on a mini bus tour where we had to arrive at the city centre by 8. 45am, so we had to miss breakfast.

    It was very comfortable. It was a good 20 minutes walk into the city centre though. We could have taken a bus.

    Hidden surprise close to the city

    Was all good as travelling alone but this would be a single room, very tight for two and a bit cramped. Furniture a little jaded but that didn't bother me as such. The lights over the bed are great but way too low, very easy to hit your head, and I did! Otherwise a good, basic hotel and Id stay again.

    Lovely boutique hotel 5 minutes drive, 15-,20 walking from the centre of Dublin, quite near Stephens Green and busy Grafton Street. Has parking on first come first served for about 6 cars but lots of street parking around, some more pricey than others. Public transport goes right by. Quite well situated for Board Gais theatre, 10 minutes by car, Aviva Stadium or RDS for events. The National Museums all close by. A few nice squares and parks also. Reasonably close to the National Concert Hall and very well placed for Trinity College, Dublin Castle and other tourist places. The hotel is an amalgamation of old Georgian buildings and has terrific outdoor seating space to the front. It has it's own restaurant and bar (didn't use either) and all in all a good find. Sustainable soap and shampoo etc which is good and real glasses. Upstairs access by staircase so could be limiting for some but ground floor rooms available. Bar etc is on the basement level but not that far down. Room was snug but beds comfortable. TV was a bit small but adequate but not sure about the channels. Free, good speed WiFi throughout. Lady on reception was lovely on check in. Great to have bright lights to do some work, many venues just are poorly lit, this wasn't.

    The provided room fan didn't really work to clear the incredibly stuffy rooms. The noise from the restaurant and bar below, as it was necessary to open the windows for ventilation, was an annoying surprise. They should consider adding a top sheet to the linen for the beds. During the summer months, duvets are much too heavy for a room without AC.

    It's a charming looking hotel. The water pressure in the showers is fantastic. Ample towels provided.
