Disliked: Staff & service
Nice historical building with well appointed rooms and great breakfasts. Good location. On the negative side, it feels like staff lacks training and customer attention. Every time you approached them with a question, they made it feel like you were interrupting them and were an imposition. Your job as hotel staff is to look after your guests.

This is a beautiful B&B. I would highly recommend this spot and would stay here again The included breakfast was delicious and there was good variety The location is quieter, not around much, but transit station is walkable and easy to figure out If you’re so inclined-Dublin City Centre is a good 25 minute walk, maybe 30.

The staff was superb. They really went above and beyond, helping us with our luggage, storing the stroller, bringing a fan to our room when I felt warm, and even finding a microwave to make a late night snack for our 2 year old. Was overall very impressed.

The property is a Heritage home which I did not realize. The breakfast was free and it was served in the dining room of the home which wasn’t very big so you had to wait for a seat. No bar or other restaurant. Too quiet for my liking!
