The reservation was for a double room, what we received were two double beds, each with their own duvet pushed together but with a degree of freedom between them that any little movement created a space between the beds. If I had wanted a room with two single beds, I would have booked that. I booked a double bed, my booking atated I was to be provided with a double bed room but that was not the case upon accessing the room. If yoiu are not goping to provide what was booked, I should have been informed of this.

A wonderful place to stay with a rich history. The room was comfortable and clean. For a historic building , we were pleased by the very modern amenities with a large, updated walk in shower and international electrical outlets. It is very easy and quick to take the bus to the center of Dublin where most tourist sites are within walking distance. Located in a beautiful neighbourhood and close to the sea.
