Room was clean. Cleaners were very helpful to help us with early check in. Can’t be helped as there’s no reception staff but the room next to ours were very loud throughout the night knocking on doors and shouting. Only bad thing !

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room did not resemble the pictures on the website. There was a strong smell of blocked drains throughout the property. I arrived too late to make new arrangements for the first night so stayed, keeping the bathroom window open to try to manage the smell. No staff were available. Nobody answered the phone number provided. I did not stay the second booked night. Hotels.com say they have been trying to secure a refund for me, but with no joy. The hotel is not answering my emails. This is the sort of hotel that gives Dublin a bad reputation. I will not be using hotels.com again as, clearly, the information on the website is not a reliable indication of the quality of experience you can expect.

You are staying in a VRBO that looks like a hotel. No one is going to greet you or help you at the desk. Once I figured that out the room was fine and I really liked the neighborhood. We didn’t have a car and the bus system to town was great.

You do get what you pay for... Our stay was overall not bad but there were some not great things. Such as, the hallway carpets are stained and old, the hallway also has an odor, the smoke alarm is right outside of bathroom door so it went off when showering, and the tv doesn’t work. But the cleaning staff was very nice and helpful.

The location is really easy to navigate from within the city. Getting downtown was easy and cheap with the bus route right outside and down the street. We appreciated the cleaning staff and how kind and helpful they were and the addition of the common space to work/relax is a good help when you need to get some space to work. Totally recommend!
