Very good

My comments are similar to others posted. The check-in process could be a lot smoother.
The unit we had, 203, was perfectly adequate. Bed, tv, small bath, kitchenette, all good.
On-site staff was super friendly and helpful. Emails to staff for additional supplies or maid services were address immediately or at requested times.
Unit was close to Trinity College but far enough removed from crowd noise.
Clean, modern unit. Would definitely stay again.
It was fine once you got in. It was horrible getting in. There is no staff on site. They require a deposit through an online portal that didn’t work. Once paid, they didn’t send entry codes at the checkin time. I had to call them and remind them I had paid the deposit before they sent the codes. Stay elsewhere. This place isn’t worth the trouble.
I would rate this place a 1 star on the check in process. No check in counter. It was self check in. I got there and nobody was there. Had to call on my cell phone and probably spent 20 bucks in phone charges trying to get into the building. A few other customers were really unhappy about the check in process also. Part of it was Expedia's fault for not displaying the fine print of self check in on their page. Once i got in to the room i was pleasantly impressed with the room. Clean, comfortable beds spacious. If the check in process was easier i would have rated this place 4 stars. Just beware no hotel clerk will be waiting for you.
The rooms were clean and we didn't need a car. Everything was walkable. the restaurant down the street was so good we ate there three times during our stay. Felt very safe.

Liked: Cleanliness
Property was nice, clean & tidy. The additional €100 security charge on top of standard price of a room is a bit high in my opinion, and you must pay this charge before you receive the entrance codes. However would I stay there again yes
Great price and location. Great facilities. The only problem I have is they took a €100 payment off my card instead of a €100 hold and now I have to wait days for it to go back on my card or even be told when it is getting refunded.
Despite it being a self check in and out and a bit of confusion at the start, it was a lovely large room, more like a large bedsit, immaculate and great shower, 5 mins walk to Grafton Street.
Ill be back.
My stay was very good. The accommodation exceeded my exceptions and good value. However the poor communication to me from Hotels.com regarding the checkin procedure & security deposit left me out in the rain before getting into my room. Had it not been for the staff at the hotel guiding me it would have taken longer. The Hotel and staff were great. Hotels.com not so much.
Was locked out of the building before I could check in. Worst experience Ive ever had with a hotel. Refusing to refund me after not letting me in to the room. Never using Expedia again.
