Service desk was great. Room was a student room as expected. All fine. Dcu was very busy and many of the young folks were very loud next door and just outside our windows. Screaming and hollering.. otherwise it was good.

The room was clean and well maintained and ideal for college students and/or solo travelers on a budget. It has 1 single bed, a study table and a bathroom. I got a 10 euro coupon for breakfast the next day and that was pretty good and includes hot and cold items and coffee/juice etc. It opens at 730am. There’s also a Euro Spar market and subway across the street from the main entrance and a store and pharmacy on campus. Overall a great deal for your money!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location is great, is was near our family and bus lines to Dublin. The room prices are good but you’re staying in a tiny dorm room. It was nice and quiet when we stayed in May. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The maid service made the beds every night but forgot to replace towels. The worse thing about the whole experience was the in room bathroom. It needed total renovation. The grout was in terrible shape, the toilet bowl was rusted and the sink was beat. There’s also no bathroom fan available and some signs of mold. Our room was ground level and the window faced a maintenance area where some workers smoked. Overall it’s probably a ok experience for prospective college students. The DCU campus was busy even offseason but it’s very subpar for a hotel room for parents or any adults.
