Overall Good
It is is nice hotel and is conveniently located. It was also one of the less expensive hotels in Dublin. That said, the the room was rather small. Whenever we asked for anything like extra towels, we had to call repeatedly and it took forever to get them. We asked for an extra sheet to use instead of the duvet and they kept sending us duvet covers. We put out the do not disturb sign and the maid still entered our room. She took random towels, most of which were not on the floor and did not leave enough towels to replace them. Ireland was having a heatwave, but they turned the air conditioning off at night, which was the only time we needed it. We were out during the day and we would have slept better if we had the air conditioning. We got a deal on breakfast, which we appreciated. It was pretty good. The service in the restaurant was good.

Good location
Good location for seeing the things we had on our list. Rooms small, but that is expected. AC sometimes turned itself off, so we just had to keep checking it/turning back on when we returned to room
