If you are somebody who needs quiet to sleep, I would not stay here. I didn't learn until I had checked in that the hotel, and in particular my room, was right above a pub--that serves alcohol until 2:30 a.m. and doesn't close until 3:30 a.m. That was not disclosed anywhere on Orbitz, nor was I told this upon check in. Soon after getting to the room, I asked to be put in a different room, but that wasn't possible, as none were open. I asked to be let out of my reservation. I got the runaround from two different people at the desk over several hours. One said I needed to wait for a manager to sign off, then another nothing could be done because it was a weekend. "How will I sleep if there is pounding music and drunken laughter until 3 a.m.?" I asked one of the guys. Then he did something that made me realize this was a huge problem at the hotel: he got out a large box of earplugs and offered me a pair. I spent an hour on the phone with Orbitz. They tried to be helpful but said they needed a waiver from the company to let me out of my three days of reservation. That never came. Around 10 p.m., I decided to just leave. I wasn't going to ruin my short time in Dublin because I couldn't sleep. I ended up losing the money, which was very frustrating. If you like to party, and figure you will be out late, then this place is probably fine. You can come in around 3 a.m. and crash out. If you want relative quiet to be able to sleep, then stay somewhere else.

This is my first time writing reviews on hotel. But if I could give this hotel zero rating I will. My husband and I recently visited Ireland. We book the hotel despite of the low rating. We book 1bed room nonsmoking.We came back from our tour to check in. There was a gentleman man in front of us. Although he did warned us that he is leaving because of the unbearable noise in his room. We simply say to him “Im sure we will be fine, but good luck”. We got in to the room. And we are so shocked about the noise. The hallways smells like mildew and Smoke. Our Room smells like a straight up ashtray. I do have A severe asthma and I could not stand the smell and smoke coming out of the bar literally right next to us. At one point im getting tachycardia and feeling getting tired due to my heart beating fast. We feel nauseous and started to get a headache. Never in my life experienced stuff like this and to pay $185 to only feel we couldn’t breathe and feel suffocated and the need settle to the noise (God knows how long it will last) My husband and I are both nurses and one thing we both like to do on our days off is to travel. We’ve been through hundreds of hotels but this is by far the worst we stayed at.All we need is a place to crashed out and sleep. We experience the opposite.We contacted Expedia. And alerted the Front desk that we have to leave and cancel the room.It was already 1:30 am.We are tired at that point,but we couldn’t stay any longer in that room. Overall bad experience

Well placed in Dublin

We asked for a quiet room so we’re on the 3rd floor ( this is an old hotel so under stable) The room was quiet and clean. For a hotel that is central it is affordable and clean.

Value for Money

Great value for the price. Right in the centre of the city for a budget break it’s great! There is stairs to check in, very basic area. The rooms are a lot more luxurious than we were expecting and nice big windows & tv and the bed is so comfortable, clean hotel standards. Staff are pleasant and then there’s a pub restaurant attached so if you want food from the hotel as such you would go there. No room service. You ring a bell for them to open the door too, day & night, so good security.

Very nice area in terms of getting to places. However our main issue with the stay was that we weren’t allowed to bring any tarts back to the room. I’d be more understanding if we warned before however we only found out when we were trying to bring two jezzys to the room. I’d definitely stay again when I return in the future.
