Disliked: Staff & service
Knowing we would arrive after a 12 hr flight we paid for a two night stay so we could check in early and catch up on sleep- but they sold our room so it was not available for us when we arrived- as we planned. Double selling the room after we specifically indicated our arrival time and had paid for it, which left us waiting for our paid room to be vacated and cleaned before we could use it. Not ethical. Very unhappy with this situation.

This property is fairly new. The rooms are all upgraded and very clean. The full breakfast was an amazing start to our day. The hotel is located near many modes of transportation which was very convenient to travel around the city, however the hotel was also located clise to many sites which are easy to walk to.

Right on O’Connell Street. Bus from Julianstown stops right at the building, which is convenient but means you need to keep your windows closed. Breakfast selection and attention to keeping selection full was excellent.
