Disliked: Room comfort
Was disappointed when we got there and realised there was no bar or restaurant. It was only a place to stay . Walked into Dundrum for something to eat . Overall the room was clean and the bed comfortable but not hotel facilities
The hotel overall was really nice and clean, staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast could have been better value for money as you do not get much but other than that I can’t fault it.

Convenient
Was attending a graduation in the IMI so booked in for convenience. Decor tired, beds comfortable, room warm. Bathroom functional, towels tired,only one complementary shower gel supplied but had brought my own. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment on that.

Not a hotel
This is not a hotel !
Very misleading advertising, it’s literally a building with cold concrete walls. The rooms are ok but nothing to do, so far away from everything and breakfast the following morning is literally cereal or toast.
You would have better amenities in a hostel.
Definitely would not stay here again.
Good option was to order online and have it delivered
Very comfortable nice rooms, staff are very helpful. Breakfast was very disappointing, just basic offerings, toast, coffee cereals etc., a big let down compared to everything else.

Functional , simple , standard.
A bit lifeless , needs a bit of an up date but all in all ok.
Dirty, old, stained carpets, breakfast is €8 for a selection of one type of cheese, cheap ham, and is a waste of money. There is a garage along the road that has a much better selection. The bed is however comfortable
Wonderful, quiet, a great room, top quality linen and orthopaedic mattress.
Reception staff are very welcoming.

Basically it was okay. The room generally is very nice, same for the bathroom. It was also clean. Condition of the room wasn‘t that nice and it was really cold. Heater didn‘t work and I slept with two other blankets I found on the top of the wardrobe.
Quiet, on edge of town, free parking.
Big room.
Attractive complex, looked like one of the modern Cambridge colleges architecturally.
No bar or lounge area really. Shops required driving to.
In a quite area so not noisy. Lack of bar/catering facilities. Signage into unit poor.

We have stayed here a number of times but recently it seems to be going downhill. Arrived after PRE-paying for the room but had the receptionist wanting to charge 110 euro for the room. I had pre paid but doubted myself and said ill pay on checkout which would have given me a chance to check emails etc but was refused that option. When I finally gave in I had my credit card in the machine and was just about to submit pin when I was stopped as the receptionist read the information correctly and figured out I had already paid for the room. When to the room, carpet was all stained, cushions that are decoration on the bed are covered in stains and it seemed as if the heating was not working but we thought it would come on later. Recent stays have shown us the carpets are worn but that happens in hotel rooms. We ordered a taxi went up to reception almost 10 minutes early stood in reception and walked out every now and again to see if taxi was outside. The receptionist who had tried to over charge us and who also ordered the taxi left us stand there and then told us to walk all the ways around to the other entrance to get the taxi as she did not tell him the pick up was at the residence side. We have always seen the taxis come to the residence side of the complex. It was were we were dropped off later and where others were being dropped and collected as well. Came home at 11.30pm to find room freezing as no heating working. Too late to go looking for night porter.

Great location. Excellent clean room. Exactly what is advertised. Nice small gym and a free breakfast. Elizabeth from Brazil who serves breakfast was very helpful and accommodating. Leam checked me in fast and with a friendly manner. Nice hotel. Will stay again. Good value for the price!
Pros
It was interesting that it was on a campus. Very quiet accommodations. Like that it was close to Dundrum shopping centre and not in the hustle and bustle of Central Dublin.
Cons
Dated building but modern decor.
Poor signage, confusing reception, tatty premises,very unattractive kitchen/breakfast area which all had a musty smell,very small twin‘executive’ room, thin towels, stained and shoddy shower,very cheap toilet paper, frozen mushy fruit at breakfast, only one key card, no air conditioning-room very warm!.Expensive for what we got.would rather have paid a little extra a few hundred meters away as easy to drive to a tram station or find a bus stop.Very disappointed .
