Liked: The breakfast was good for what you pay.

Disliked: It was so noisy! The walls and floors were so thin and hollow that you could hear everything going on around you which made it very hard to sleep and was a constant annoyance.

Customer review

28 September 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I rented a single room over the weekend. Clean place, clean room, clean bathroom/toilets. Location is excellent, it's very near O'Connell Street and in city centre. It is also near the tourist centre and all Dublin City buses stop at O'Connell.Internet is only accessible on staff's single PC. Did not experience breakfast in bed because I left early each morning and had mine in the kitchen/dining. Price is ok for single, if you're looking for more socialising and shared dorms I believe there are better ones. This one lacks a chill out common room if you know what I mean. No ensuite bathrooms available.In summary, excellent location, decent price, well maintained. Would recommmend for people who prefer privacy and less people per room.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
