Staff were great. Great reception area and bar. Ideally located for centre of dublin. Room was clean and spacious, with no complaints. If at the hotel bar, try the barmans Bloody Mary and the Secret sauce.

The hotel is cozy and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The bar and restaurant are excellent. The area is full of life and excitement if you don't mind late night noise.
The location is good if you want to be in the heart of Temple Bar, but it is very loud well into the early morning. Also, room was a bit small for a deluxe.

Location
Hotel is in need of some TLC. Rooms do not appear to have been updated in years.. reported TVs in both rooms did not work- very old. Given a business card and told to contact manager. Later in evening significant leak coming through light in bathroom from room above. Shorted lights. Family did not feel safe in room so ended up crashing all in one room. Hotel provided a camp bed as hotel full. No offer of any compensation next morning. Rumour is hotel closing down for major renovation soon.

Great location; very handy for Temple bar. Staff were fantastic! We checked in early and dropped off our bags. When we came back our bags had been brought to the rooms for us. They acknowledged my special reason for the stay which was a lovely touch.

I like the lobby bar and its location.
The apartments are dated and warm with no air conditioning, even though it was not hot outside. If you open window, you hear street noises.
