The guesthouse has 29 rooms, each one providing private bathroom facilities and amenities such as flat-screen TVs and tea and coffee making facilities. A two-bedroom apartment with a kitchen is also available. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property. A limited number of parking spaces are available at extra cost.

By far one of the most appealing aspects of this guesthouse seems to be its location. Guests love how they are able to walk to many of Dublin's attractions, including the vibrant O'Connell Street and the popular Temple Bar area.
If you're not bringing a car, it doesn't seem like you'll have much to worry about when it comes to getting around. This property places you within strolling distance of the Luas (light rail) and the city's main bus station. Plus, guests mention that the bus from the airport stops right outside.
While you wouldn't necessarily choose this guesthouse for a longer stay, reviews suggest that it does the job for a quick overnighter or a weekend break. Most guests also describe the property as a good choice if your budget is tight.
Although the official website claims that the rooms are newly refurbished, guests do mention some issues. Housekeeping and maintenance could perhaps be better and the beds are sometimes described as old and uncomfortable. Plus, guests found the accommodation, especially the bathrooms, was small.
While some guests praise the standard of service offered by staff, others weren't quite as impressed. A warm welcome doesn't seem to come as standard. There are also some reports regarding staff asking for more money toward the end of a booking. Plus, you are expected to hand in your room key every time you leave the property.
This guesthouse used to include a breakfast in the room rate but the kitchen has now closed, seemingly for good. This presented a problem for some guests who would have preferred the convenience of being able to eat a morning meal on-site.
