I booked this on the internet before we left for 49 euro for 2 people a night. I wanted to make sure we had a place to land our first night. Our plane landed 45 minutes early at 5 am and by the time we took the bus into Dublin it was 7am. We knew check-in wasn't until 2 pm but we thought we would ask them if we could stash our bags. Not only were they wonderful about that, but they told us they could have a room ready for us in 15 minutes if we wanted to wait upstairs in the lounge. Our room was nice, the people were friendly, and the price was certainly right. We spent our last two nights back in Dublin and returned to this hotel this time for 59 euros a night, still a bargain in Dublin.
Directions: If you're coming from O'Connell Street (River Liffey), make a right after passing the Post Office (at the James Joyce statue). Go about 100 feet and it'll be on your right (it's been two years, so the directions might be a little off)
Very understated hotel, w/o the small sign above the door we might have missed it. The rooms were serviceable. The only real negative I can think of is the walls are thin. We found this out because a group of drunk middle aged Americans were going room to room to find theirs and you could hear them on the whole floor. I am from the US and these guys embarressed the hell out of me.
This hotel is located in a rather noisy street. The rooms are small, but clean and everything works! The entrance is small and easy to miss. The breakfast room and living are quite nice. We thought it was a good bargain.
It is very near to the airport busstop. The location is great if you like shopping.
