Upon arrival to our hotel I approached the reception desk and asked to check in, the receptionist looked blankly at me and didnt respond as expected. We did arrive early and expected to use the luggage room but were advised the room was ready, so this was useful. There were removation works ongoing, of which we were not informed of prior to our visit. Once we dropped our bags to our room, we left our room amd headed to the lifts, the fire alarm sounded which was quite alerting. We then used the stairs and found it was a test, the receptionist did not make us aware of this and a A4 size notice was on one wall on ground level. Staff at reception I feel should have told us about this at check in. Our room was modern and very nice but was cold. The heating didnt work properly but we were only there for 1 night, so didnt see help to resolve this as we took winter clothes with us. Someone also walked in our room at 7.30 and woke us up. They then left the room and the door didn't close properly, i dont know who entered the room. A cleaner knockee at 9am to which check out is 11am, they said they would return later.

Great desk people. Clean. Good kitchenette. Only huge issue was the heat kept coming on despite us turning DOWN the thermostat. It was literally roasting in our room all night. Had to actually open the patio door in sub 40’s weather during the night to get any sleep. 2 of the worst sleep nights we’ve had in a long time.

Comfy, but noisy
Our room faced the open air bar/club next door so we could hear that noise late into the night. Shower was a bit banged up/missing grout & the only toiletry supplied was a hair & body wash combo. Staff was great, room was clean, we got into our room early & they stored our luggage after check-out as we had a late day flight. Bars & restaurants in the area & Dublin is very walkable.

This was a great location to easily walk to all the major areas of Dublin. There are tons of food and drink options nearby as well. The property was clean and well maintained. The walls are VERY thin though, so we heard all our neighbors throughout the night. But overall the stay was good.
