the room i got wasn't great. it felt quite small, almost like a budget motel room. also, the fridge only worked when the key card was in. housekeeping kept removing the card, so i couldn't keep my food cold. it was quite annoying!!!

The location was quite central and peaceful. it was a short walk to stephens green. the front terrace provided a beautiful spot to relax. I enjoyed the atmosphere among the trees.

the room seemed smaller than anticipated for the price. it reminded me of a basic travelodge room. also the staff was not particularly helpful.
