A bargain lovely staff neighborhood questiionable

I was greeted by the lovely Sebastian who was very helpful The neighborhood is a bit sketchy and I would not go out at night but the Lodge was fine and my room was small but comfortable . Close to a lot of sites and you are able to get transportation to other parts of Dublin.

The hotel was cute..style was charming with an intentionally throwback feel. No a/c but they did provide a fan. Likely not much need for A/C as Dublin seems to cool off at night. Breakfast was nice and room was relatively spacious. The linens and beds were nice. Bathroom was upgraded (rain shower), modern style. The main issue we had is that the street is a little sketchy overall. The hotel is a 15 min walk to Trinity College (across the river) and a little outside of the most touristy areas...we saw a fair amount of drug use in the area, which is nothing to do with the hotel at all, but maybe a function of being a bit off the main tourist area in a big city. Great little pub less than a block away (the Celt).

It’s a small lodge close to shops and restaurants. Room is clean and spacious. It has an old-day feel. The only problem is the bathroom - there is no ventilation so it was moist and didn’t dry up at all. The staff was ok, I asked them to order a taxi, they never did.

Staff were good and helped us with an early breakfast and taxi on the morning we had to leave. Room was nice and location was good for walking to downtown Dublin. Enjoyed the little roof garden area which is nice for a coffee.

The facility overall is nice. Trying to check in and drop of your luggage is horrible. There is no area in front or in back of the building, you literally have to stop on the street in traffic and unload. The parking garage they discount is about three/ four blocks up the street. The room we received was extremely small, we had to take turns opening luggage on the bed since there was no other room. Temple bar area is about a fifteen minute walk, you are close to several shops.

The place is more of a hostel, it was billed as family friendly but rooms were tiny, mattresses were very thin and not comfortable, sheets had small stains on them, the shower drain was backed up and flooded the tiny bathroom, water backed up outside the bathroom onto the carpet and never dried. The toilet backed up the second day. They front desk refunded us a portion of the cost but never apologized or seemed to care much.

Fantastic breakfast and staff!

I was happy with this choice! The breakfast was fantastic, like being at a restaurant. The staff is kind and attentive. The location is central. The room was small, but cozy.
