The hotel is located in a peaceful residential area not far from good pubs in Rathmines. The rooms are comfortable with a shared kitchen and shared bathroom. The service by the housekeeping staff was excellent, but there could be some improvements. The location is convenient for those looking for a quiet neighborhood relatively close to the city centre. The pancake platter at the dining area was delicious. Overall, a decent place for its value with minor drawbacks.

The hotel is located in a peaceful area, quite close to the center and within walking distance of several very nice restaurants. The upstairs bedrooms are comfortable but would benefit from a shared kitchen. The service by the housekeeping staff is commendable. The Danish pastries in the dining area are a delightful treat.

Superb location near transport facilities and the city center. The rooms are comfy and clean, and the housekeeping staff are very accommodating. However, the dining experience lacked variety. A reasonable option for a stay.

I had a pleasant stay overall. The hotel is located in a peaceful area, not far from the city center, and offers a nice neighborhood vibe. The shared bathroom in the upstairs bedrooms was a bit inconvenient, but the showers were clean and well-maintained. The Sicilian products offered in dining were a nice touch, but could be improved. The efforts of the housekeeping staff were commendable.
