The only compliments I have are that the staff were friendly and helpful, and the propety felt very safe and secure.
The room was somewhat moldy (mostly in the bathroom and by the window) and the towels and comforter we first received had strange spots and stains. We received new ones, but that comforter had weird stains too. We ended up just arranging the slip to avoid them. We used our own towels.
The absolute state of the shared kitchen was abysmal - dirty dishes in the sink, crumb on the table and sticky floor, weird stains on the couches and chairs, and there were no paper towels or cleaning spray to clean them. In the two weeks we stayed, they didn't take the kitchen trash out or appear to clean the shared spaces once and began to pile around the bins.
The smell of the area (we think from the Guinness distillery just down the block) was greasy and uncomfortable. We were lucky to be on the first floor - there are no fans and barely any air circulation as the window can only open a sliver. The room was HOT even when it was 18-20c out. It's right across from a small park which was rather noisy at night. Unfortunately we stayed during a heatwave and fans were sold out in Dublin so we couldn't get our own.
You get what you pay for, it's definitely the cheapest option in the area, but I still wish the basic services such as cleaning and trash were managed properly. Thank you to the staff for being lovely, this appears to me to be a management issue.
