Leinster Cheap Vacations

The photos of the property are there, it is updated. What I didn’t really understand prior to arriving was the long set of stairs to drag my suitcase up. It’s like 4 stories and no elevator. The other issue is that the noise from neighboring rentals would wake me often, sometimes at 2:30 am—and the street noise can sometimes last pretty late. It was hard to get a good nights rest. The digital key was often problematic. Check in at 3:00pm was late.. we didn’t have access until 4 pm, which was a problem for us.

We had a good experience with some difficulties. The good - the apartment was nicely decorated and spacious, with a kitchen and balcony, and good restaurants nearby. Also, there were tea and biscuits provided. We appreciated the 2 bedrooms, and the staff was friendly and prompt with communication via Expedia messages. The bad - The check in process was cumbersome, having to drive through the city to get the key. Also, we had no hot water the 1st night since we weren't aware there was a special process to turn it on. Also, the picture showed 2 beds in 1 room, and the setup when we got there was 1 bed, but we made do with the couch.

In a cool part of Dublin with many nice restaurants and bars. Laylas, the rooftop restaurant of the hotel is a very nice place with views of the city. There is a movie theater in the basement that shows first run movies. Parking is a bit of a hassle but thats true of most places. This is the second time we stayed here.

The bartenders in the Collins club were excellent. Food was very good.

It was a perfect location. Safe and walkable. It would have been nice to have a fan for the bedrooms. The one fan that was there didn't seem to work very well. It would be nice if the check in location wasn't so far from the rental or if you could use a lockbox or code to get in after on-line pre check in. The walking instructions to the apt. weren't the clearest and we walked a long ways out of our way with luggage. But, once we arrived with the kindness of a local person who walked us to our door, it was a perfect place to be. Close to pubs and restaurants and shopping. Now that I know my way around a little bit, I would for sure stay there again if I was in Dublin.
