This place is exactly in the middle of everything you want to see as a tourist in Dublin. Almost every place is walkable. Location is unbeatable. Receptionist Maria was kind enough to accommodate early check in for me as i had a long flight. Food was average but its central location kills all the odds!

Truly a wonderful location in Dublin, very central and easy to get around everywhere by walking or taking a bus - even the DART train to visit Malahide, Howth, Bray, etc out of the city is a 16 min walk away. The front desk was incredibly helpful and made the stay seamless and comfortable, and the room was perfectly comfortable for a longer stay. All in all, a great spot for enjoying Dublin!
