Basic, but pleasant experience

This hotel was very basic needs covered, was fairly clean and the front desk was friendly. It was nice having the bus stop right in front of the hotel, but it wasn't as close to the city center as I thought. It takes around15 min bus ride to city center and the bus usually comes every 20 min. I had a pleasant experience but didn't blow my mind. Will probably stay somewhere else next time.

A relaxing break

We had a lovely relaxing break at a good price. The only real issue for us was that it was a bit further out of the city (approx 15 mins on the bus) than we would have liked. However it was a lovely hotel with lovely pleasant staff.

Handy for the City centre

Good, clean hotel right on the bus route to the City. Room was excellent, staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay there again. Could perhaps think about turning the heating down though.

Inexpensive and near to city centre

It's in a good location with a bus stop right outside the hotel that will take you right into the centre of Dublin. The hotel room was clean and comfortable. The bar food was not very nice. I was told at reception that guests were entitled to a 15% discount if they ate in the bar but this was not the case and the bar staff were not very helpful. Overall my experience was good and the hotel is value for money but I would not recommend eating at the hotel.

Great place to stay! Especially on St. Patty's Day!

This hotel was very nice. They had plenty of outlets in the room and great space to get ready for two girls going out on St. Patty's Day. The hotel bar was great for live music and less expensive pints of Guinness then we spent out in Dublin. Bus station right across the street to head into town for less than 3 euro and they had our cars inside a locked underground gate area. Felt very safe! Great place and great staff very helpful in getting around!
