Night staff is friendlier than day staff. low water pressure and bad view from my room… Anyway I like that the room is with bigger space instead of a huge bathroom. They have memory foam pillow if you request it, it was great!

I have stayed at 4 or 5 hotels in my various trips to Ireland. I even stayed at a 5 star resort the last time I traveled here and I will say hands down the room at the Alex was by far the nicest room I have stayed in. It's not directly in the town center but it's just a 10 min walk away and one I didn't mind based on the quality of the room. My only wish was that it had a pool. There is a work out facility across the street that I never checked out so one might have been there. If I ever go back to Dublin I would definitely stay here again. They have a couple of restaurants near by both places were excellent one served the best fish in chips that I have ever had the other had a great Guinness beef pie.

The flight arrived early, and I also checked in in advance and gave the largest suite. surprise It's just that the room is a little difficult to heat, it's a little cold, the heating can only be up to 24 degrees, but in fact it can't reach 24. It took a long time to get better. The decoration is still new, the breakfast is ok, the overall is good

The overall environment and room hygiene of this hotel are at most 3-star level, not to mention any boutique hotel. The attitude of the service staff is very good but they have no sense of service at all. Not a bad review. But the price doesn't match the hotel at all.
