There was loud music and bass playing almost the entire night so we woke up multiple times. The staff was sweet but the accomodation itself was not quite what expected for that price. It was also really hot and the small fan provided helped to cool the room only a little.

Great central location but you get what you pay for. Room is basic but everything worked as it should (I needed the shower on top form when I did and it certainly was!) and the bed was quite comfortable. The place overall is a bit maze like and could be a bit cleaner but for the price (€55 albeit with a voucher), it did the job.

Location: Good, in the heart of Dublin! People are not lying about the noise, it is LOUD. however, bring ear plugs and you'll be fine, bed comfy. Free tea and coffee in the room. For a one or two night stay and if your a heavy sleeper or just want an ideal place in the city I would recommend this hotel.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel says it had a bar/restaurant. It did not. It was above a bar and around the corner from a restaurant. When the bar closed at 3:30 am the streets became very loud which woke us up. The rooms were clean but there were 5 of us. We were told we needed two rooms. One of the rooms had 3 twin beds and 1 queen bed. Would have worked for us. Good location just not great hotel unless you can sleep through anything. We picked place for location and bar/restaurant to make it easier in morning. When it didn’t have that and then the noise was awful.

check in was made difficult as partner arrived before myself and was made to pay 100 euro deposit to enter the room. the hotel and room were not very clean. the hotel was so hot and the noise from outside bars made it difficult to sleep and a very strong smell of cannibis around the hotel throughout the whole stay. overall we were disappointed with our stay and will not be booking again

Not as much of a dump as other reviews might suggest. Photos of this hotel are also wildly misleading. More of a hostel than a hotel which doesn’t reflect the price. Decent location close to the city but the local area is rough
