Even if we were frightened by some previous bad reviews, we finally chose to book here. The building is old and would need renovation, but the location is very good for Temple Bar. The rooms are very small and basic, but clean. The young international staff is friendly and helpful, providing you a breakfast "on request"! The gay sauna is... More

I read with my friends the review immediately prior to me writing this review, and to say we were apprehensive is an understatement. I am more than happy to report that we found this Bed and Breakfast extremely good value for money. We tried to book into the Morrison Hotel further down the quay, but the price was far too... More

Say it about this hell hole. Whilst not filthy & bed bug free it is tired and rather depressing. There's an awful smell ( despair?) & all rooms are smoking, the breakfast room was nice enough but only ate there once. Staff were ok to pretty genuine and local was great to enjoy Dublin and you wanted to stay out... More

Well I stayed in the apartment and yes it is above a gay sauna but that really was fine.. The sauna itself is terrible don't even bother... Having said that my apartment was fine for a cheap three night stay and I would recommend it.. Good location and generally nice. The worst part was the shower which is very average...

This is a guest house for gay men only and basically the place was very dirty. We had a spacious one bedroom apartment that could be wonderful. However, I spent two hours the first day cleaning the kitchen before I felt I could use anything in it. The bedroom and bathroom were very dimly lit. Maybe they thought if the... More

Stayed for a few days in August and found the location very good, close to the main attractions in Dublin and easy to get transport to the airport. The staff were extremely friendly and it made my stay even better.

The location was fantastic! It was clean and the bed was comfortable. I am quite particular about Hotels in general and will pay the money for a nice hotel with good service. The bell boy (man)| who helped my boyfriend and I with our luggage was always at our service. He called me by name when he was me and... More

The room and equipment were in line with what is expected for a "low-budget" accomodation. The breakfast was very good, and the service at the breakfast was very kind and helpful. All the staff was very friendly and they made the accomodation a wonderful place to stay in.

I had an inexpensive (small) economy room ensuite. But with breakfast and sauna priveleges included it was a great value for the money. The breakfast attendant cooked breakfast to order, everything included. I even asked for my eggs w/o yolks and was accomodated. No lift!
