lovely temple bar stay

central locationhelpful staffcomfortable bedmorning coffee
the hotel's location proved excellent, within walking distance of many attractions. i appreciated the helpful nature of the staff, they were quick to address any questions. the room was clean and i found the bed quite comfortable. it was a treat to have complimentary coffee and pastries available each morning.
the air conditioning unit, while effective, emitted a noticeable noise throughout the night, it was a bit disruptive.

The location was really convenient! the hotel was close to everything i wanted to see. also, the super nice team and friendly. They made check-in easy and were always available to answer questions.
unfortunately, there was no ventilation in the bathroom. the room felt a bit damp when i arrived, though it improved slightly after using the air conditioning. the live music from the bar downstairs was quite loud until late.
