1) Location: Awesome - great pubs (Smyth, The 51, Searsons) and Tesco market within close walking distance; Grafton Street, Temple Bar & Trinity, also, very walk-able.
2) Layout: Perfect for large groups as couples or pairs of friends can each get their own bedroom & bath with good common space for hanging out all together. Kitchen has all the amenities - especially a quick boiling kettle for a nice morning cup of tea.
3) Comfort: Fell asleep almost the minute the head hit the pillow & slept like a baby and didn't wake even when others stayed up late downstairs.
4) Ease: Check-in was quick and painless and Martin provided great directions & maps for everything.
5) Hoping to return soon!
