The hotel is conveniently located near the city center and offers a great walk into Dublin city center, but it is quite a long walk for some. The rooms are comfortable with nice amenities like drinking water, but there is no hairdryer for young children. The hotel is near a lovely canal which adds to the charm, and it's opposite a night club, which may affect noise levels. The tram is conveniently close, making it easy to reach various attractions.
