8/10 Good

"Good hotel to crash and sleep, small rooms/bed. Very clean and with the basics: for example, did not find a trash can in the room, nor anything to make tea/coffee, not one hanger to hand anything, there is barely space next to the bed to sit anything. Modern and well maintained. Staff is nice. There are not many amenities, but a coffee machine and a water dispenser in the lobby helped. All worked OK, location is close to LUAS, the train station, and walking distance to the main city center attractions, and plenty of coffee shops nearby. The street is quiet and low key, but if you walk a couple of blocks north, there is this completely separate area called Stonebatter which has lots of places to eat, drink and party. We were pleased with everything, some aparthotels do offer more for the same or less price, so that is the only critique we have. The fact that is pet friendly and do not over charge for the pet stay is a plus."
