Great - very central and handy for everything
A lovely property. We had booked 3 studios and were able to access one of the studios early which was great. The studios were clean and spacious with everything you may need provided. Even some tea / coffee and milk to make a cuppa on arrival. Just a couple of minutes over the bridge to Temple Bar and just a few minutes from cafes / shops and an M&S to stock up on food to eat in if required. We were able to keep a studio until 1pm on the last day for just 10 euros, great value. All the staff we met were great.

Mediocre at best
We would not stay there again. Very dull room. Studio Window facing a junky extrrior. Shower water was lukewarm and controlled so you cannot raise the water temperature. We did not enjoy our showers at all.
