perfect location with friendly service

helpful staff convenient location great stout
i appreciated the kind and helpful staff. they allowed us to stay two extra nights in the same room after our flight got cancelled last minute (i was so relieved!). the room was a good size for a couple of nights. the pub's stout rivaled guinness, a nice surprise!
I noticed that climbing a few flights of stairs is necessary to reach the room. This might be challenging for some guests.
Rooms

the room included free wifi, tea and coffee facilities. fresh towels, very convenient. the private bathroom featured a hairdryer and plenty of sockets. while not super spacious, the room was big enough and maintained very clean, tidy conditions.
Location
10/10
the hotel is conveniently located near the bord gais theatre, about a short walk away, offering access to entertainment. a secure q-park car park is approximately 100m away. numerous cafes and restaurants are nearby, ensuring plenty of dining choices.

the pub has friendly staff in the bar and offers their own stout which rivals guinness. the location near many cafes and restaurants provides many options for meals and snacks. i especially liked that i did not hear the pub from my room.

clean room friendly staff great location friendly bar
The room was super clean! check-in was easy. all the staff were really friendly and cute. the location is great. It's close to the 3arena, and the bar staff were friendly too, which i loved!
the stairs to the room were a bit much after a long day, but it was a small price to pay.
