I didn’t have breakfast but staff inside the restaurant were brilliant. My room was very clean and comfortable and the staff were very kind and accommodating.
The staff were especially very helpful when I realised that my car battery had died.

The room was clean and breakfast was good, but the walk to downtown is over a half hour.
If you stay there you need to take a bus to go to main area of Dublin

Had a wonderful stay! The room was cozy, and I especially appreciated the free water, coffee and tea station, perfect for a slow morning! It's those little extras that made the stay feel more premium and thoughtful.
