"Perfect location to explore Dublin. Disregard any comments about being north of the Liffey. It is completely safe and central. The lobby at this hotel is everything! What a vibe! We ordered late night pizza one night and loved meeting our group for drinks before we headed out in the evenings. Elliot’s bakery is across the street and Cafe Lisboa around the corner. Amazing spot!"

"Slightly expensive for what it is - an airport hotel. Room was clean. Unable to adjust the temperature, freezing cold all night. The front desk staff were helpful while still managing to convey the impression that I was an inconvenience. There was no discussion about how late the bar was open, if the kitchen was open or what time breakfast started. And yet they charged my phone for me. This was a last minute booking just to get some sleep between flights on a long layover. It was fine for that."
