“A cool place, spotlessly clean, and great value. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the bathroom was spotless, and having tea, coffee, and a lounge area in the room was a nice touch. The staff were friendly and knew the area well. Dinner and breakfast were both great. The location is perfect, near the National Museum of Ireland. I had a really enjoyable stay and have no complaints.”
