Perfect for location - within walking distance to Trinity College and Temple bar. 10-15 minute walk from the River Liffey also. Clean, spacious apartment with everything you could need for a stay including iron/ironing board, pots/pans, cutlery etc. Couldn’t fault it! Easy process to pay deposit (receive an email link 24hrs before) and key box code / access details are sent through once apartment is ready. Only issue we had was finding the internal key box but once found was easy to access.

Stay for 4 nights in unfinished renovation room .it is like a part of the electricity centre room. Before the departure, i received a few messages : if you don't pay the deport $100, you are not able to receive the detailed check-in. The property has no front desk and no staff for assisting you check-in.I contacted the agents of expedia, I am told that you can pay when you arrive. In the plane, the hotel kept texting me the same message. Even the property says the deposit is requested under booking the regulation and condition, the customers usually do not read and pay attention behind the front booking page. Good location, quiet area. The room has no cabinets for clothes. A new kitchen counter installed, the wall is not pleasant, the bed is very soft with poor quality. No recommendations to stay.

All registration is done remotely. Never a face to talk to and when they say 4 o’clock registration. That’s what they mean.if you want or need to talk to a face, forget it.

My comments are similar to others posted. The check-in process could be a lot smoother. The unit we had, 203, was perfectly adequate. Bed, tv, small bath, kitchenette, all good. On-site staff was super friendly and helpful. Emails to staff for additional supplies or maid services were address immediately or at requested times. Unit was close to Trinity College but far enough removed from crowd noise. Clean, modern unit. Would definitely stay again.

It was fine once you got in. It was horrible getting in. There is no staff on site. They require a deposit through an online portal that didn’t work. Once paid, they didn’t send entry codes at the checkin time. I had to call them and remind them I had paid the deposit before they sent the codes. Stay elsewhere. This place isn’t worth the trouble.

The check in process is ludicrous. You have to call a call centre in who knows where that you can barely hear to get a code to let you into the building. Once inside there is nowhere to leave your cases or bags and you can’t check in till 4 o’clock so we had no option but to leave them next to a door until our return. In all I made 12 calls trying to sort out check in and the bag fiasco. The room itself was grotty. The walls are all discoloured and dirty and the toilet wasn’t cleaned and I don’t know what was on the bed spread but it was brown. In my opinion, don’t bother booking here it’s not worth the hassle, it’s grotty and there are no actual staff to talk to.

AVOID. The check-in process was very stressful and frustrating. The host sent the wrong lockbox code in the check-in instructions and I was unable to access the apartment. I tried contacting the host through multiple channels (Expedia messages, email, and the 2 phone numbers they had supplied) and received absolutely no response. As it was late evening I was ready to give up and go elsewhere. It was only after calling a different phone number I found on their website and waiting for almost 2 hours that I was finally given the correct code. Despite it being the host's mistake of sending the wrong code, I received no apology or offer of compensation for the immense stress I experienced. Unfortunately, the problems didn’t stop there. Once inside the apartment, I was appalled to discover that the bedsheets were dirty and had dark brown stains which appeared to be blood. I had to search the apartment building for clean sheets and change them myself, which is the last thing anyone wants to do after arriving after a long journey. The room also had visible dust and debris all over the floor, and the fridge was filthy, suggesting it hadn’t been properly cleaned or vacuumed in quite some time. Furthermore, the walls of the room had exposed limescale plaster which made it feel like staying in a room that was partially renovated. Overall, the lack of communication, cleanliness, and basic hospitality made this a very disappointing stay. Go elsewhere and save yourself the stress.

I would rate this place a 1 star on the check in process. No check in counter. It was self check in. I got there and nobody was there. Had to call on my cell phone and probably spent 20 bucks in phone charges trying to get into the building. A few other customers were really unhappy about the check in process also. Part of it was Expedia's fault for not displaying the fine print of self check in on their page. Once i got in to the room i was pleasantly impressed with the room. Clean, comfortable beds spacious. If the check in process was easier i would have rated this place 4 stars. Just beware no hotel clerk will be waiting for you.
