A great distance away form everything. It was not too loud and everything was affordable. I wish there were other options for food (breakfast). I wish you could also order food from your room and not have to travel down to the bar. I ended up getting sick on the trip and my husband was afraid to leave me to order food due to how sick I was.

Great place to stay for our Dublin visit. Centrally located to shopping, restaurants, transportation to attractions and airport. Breakfast had high quality offerings. Only drawback was the loud music from a nearby club that went late into the night (early into the morning really) on the weekend. Highly recommended and would stay again.

Very modern and equipped with high tech equipment. Some too complicated for us--needed help with setting the temperature and waking up with the TV. But they were helpful with most of that.
