Marlin Hotel Stephens Green
The room was fine and the staff was nice, but they had no hairdryer or toiletries (lotion, shampoo, conditioner) in the room. Also, they had hourly rates to check in early. Bag storage seemed safe and secure. Location was fine.

Zanzibar Locke
Fantastic property. Room had kitchen with mini fridge, dishwasher, and washer/dryer combo plus everything you’d need (e.g., sponge, dishwasher tablets etc). Just a lovely place. And quiet too. Downstairs is a place to eat/drink/work on your laptop. Highly recommend.

Staycity Aparthotels, Dublin Castle
Great location. Under 5 minute walk to St Peter’s, Dublin Castle, and Christ Church Cathedral. We had paid for early check in (at 10am) but were able to check in substantially earlier when we got there earlier than we expected. Staff was great, room was nice, would definitely recommend.

The Residence Dublin
It's just a student accommodation thats been opened up for use during the summer. It's a nice area. Felt very safe and has some food and shopping nearby. Probably a 20 minute walk from the station and city centre. The accompdation was nice, modern and comfortable. Not as good as a traditional hotel ...
