"Charming place, staff was amazing. Was not as accessible to the downtown areas as maps made it appear. Yes there is a bus stop right in front, but taking that bus to city center would’ve taken over half an hour. So prepare for a very long walk (at least 30 minutes.) Taxis were plentiful and arrived typically within two minutes though."

"This is an incredible place to stay in Dublin. The location is just outside city center so you get a feeling of being in a neighborhood but everything is nearby. There are a lot of good restaurants nearby too. They do a good job of providing information and the room is great too. The one thing to make sure of is that you receive the entry email beforehand as you are on your own for entering the building and how to get room access."
