Spent 3 nights and wow were we impressed. From the moment we walked into the hotel until we checked out the staff were extraordinary. Our flight was early so were welcomed to leave our luggage at the hotel AND have breakfast before we even checked in. The breakfast was amazing! Tons of options and the quality was better than restaurant. Beds were comfortable and the rooms were a great size. Location was perfect for anyone using public transportation, especially for first time visitors looking to access all the popular attractions. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

At check in we were kept waiting for 15 minutes whilst one of the checkin personnel acted as concierge for a very selfish couple. The staff member gave advice, booked tickets whilst several of us were kept waiting and unable to check in.

Don’t stay here. After I left and arrived back in the UK I notice I have been charged €150 euros, I called them and they are trying to tell me they are charging me for smoking in the room, (which did not happen) said they will send me photos of proof and I have waited all day and received nothing and my messages are now being ignored. Avoid this hotel.

The hotel in general it’s ok. Staff customer service is basic, don’t fall for the hop on hop off bus scam! They offer to you when checking in and it was the worse thing you could do! There’s only 2-3 buses available and they’re always falling behind schedule so you are better off walking to avoid hours of waiting for the bus. The breakfast option is basic and overrated, every day is the same so it’s not worth the extra money. We figured out there are much better options to stay than this hotel!

The noise was very loud from the street. You would think they would have put double paned windows as it is right on the main street. I was told my people that live in Ireland that this particular area is not safe at night.
