Pros. Location, location, location. Centrally located to most major attractions in central Dublin. Excellent value for money.

Cons. No easily accessible elevator as this hotel was not built as one. The porters are very helpful with bags, though. Ask for a room on a high floor if noise from the lively bar below is an issue.
