Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was not as expected. The rooms lacked cleanliness, with stained carpets and old furniture. However, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the location was suitable for my needs. The dining experience was below par.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was bright, warm, and sunny, but the smell of urine was overwhelming, and the noisy industrial fan kept me awake all night. The service was a mix of rude and professional attitudes. The location was outside the city center but well-connected by public transport. The dining options were a bit limited and somewhat expensive. The facilities were decent, but there were some disappointments.
The hotel room was very spacious and comfortable, but unfortunately, it was near a noisy lift that operated until late. The price included breakfast, which was a positive aspect, but the lack of ventilation in the room due to the removed window lock was a downside.
The hotel is conveniently located in Dublin city center, making it ideal for various activities. While the room cleanliness was lacking with missing lampshades and dirty carpets, the staff was friendly and approachable, offering excellent service. The dining experience was below par, especially considering the absence of breakfast options. The hotel boasts a nice reception and bar area, perfect for unwinding after a day out, despite some challenges in locating the hotel efficiently.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room size and comfort were great, but there were some damages that needed attention. The staff were incredibly helpful under difficult conditions, although the service could be better. The location suited our needs, but it may not be ideal for everyone due to some drawbacks. The dining options were limited, but the quality was satisfying. Overall, a decent choice for a simple leisure trip with a few drawbacks to consider.
The hotel had some cleanliness issues in the rooms, but the top floor rooms were large and comfortable. The service was friendly and helpful throughout my 3-night stay. The location, while beautiful, was a bit out of the way from the city center, yet well-serviced by transportation. The dining experience was a mix of excellent and disappointing, and the facilities were generally satisfactory.
I was given a dated 'executive' room that looked nothing like the one I paid for, although it was clean, comfortable, and excellent value. The hotel needs a refurb to update the rooms, but they have everything you need, so the faded curtains and worn furniture didn't bother me much.
When I checked into the hotel, I found the rooms to be quite basic and needing some refurbishment. While the room was spacious and clean, it lacked a decorative touch and didn't feel very aired out. Despite that, the location was excellent, right next to the beach with easy access to public transportation. The service was friendly overall, although not always very helpful. The dining options were satisfactory with a limited offer but well-prepared dishes. The facilities could use some improvement, especially in terms of room maintenance.
The hotel was very big and comfortable, clean but not very fresh, a bit rundown, and so was the bathroom. The breakfast was just ok, and there was a plethora of shabby and defunct furniture in the room. However, the location was ideal with easy access to public transportation. The service was polite and friendly, and the dining experience was tasty with a good variety. New mattresses are required in the rooms for an improved stay.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, though spacious and comfortable, lacked a bit of freshness and were not equipped with air conditioning. The location was convenient for my visit along the coast but was farther from certain destinations than initially indicated. The dining experience left much to be desired compared to other options nearby. The service, while friendly, was not as helpful or informative as I had hoped.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms could do with updating, but considering the value for money, they were fine. However, they didn't look anything like the pictures – very dirty and unkempt. The service was lackluster, as the staff didn't want to engage with me much and gave vague directions. On the bright side, they speak a second language. The location was farther from the city center than expected, but there's a bus right in front. The hotel was beautiful but lacked nearby activities except the maritime graveyard. The dining was okay, although the food tended to be on the cold side.
