The staff was very friendly and helpful. We loved the coffee bar in the lobby. The rooms are nicely appointed, but could use a small refrigerator. The bathrooms could use a little renovation TLC, but it was all perfectly fine. The location was great and provided easy access to many of the attractions we wanted to visit.

Very convenient location. The Aircoach stop is steps away. Close to one of the main streets of the city, but still very quiet. Bathroom is recently renovated and very clean.)

Great location, small rooms
The hotel was in a great location. The Aircoach bus from the airport dropped us off within a 5 minutes walk distance at O’Connel Street Upper. The hotel was very clean. I would have given it a five except that the room was very small and the floor tiles in the bathroom were loose because the grout had deteriorated and not been replaced. Some of the tiles had been caulked together rather poorly giving it a not so skilled DIY kind of look. Other than that the hotel was nice.

Loved my stay at the academy plaza. With the location just off O'Connell street it's super central and walking distance to a lot of thing. The hotel room was lovely and the star very friendly and helpful. Only thing I would request is better ventilation in the gym, but it did have a good selection of equipment if that's what you're looking for.

I didn’t realize how close it was to everything. It served its purpose. It’s a place to sleep and convenient to walk to everything. 16 &41 bus stops to/from the airport are right around the corner.
