Smithstown Holidays from £213

It's just a student accommodation thats been opened up for use during the summer. It's a nice area. Felt very safe and has some food and shopping nearby. Probably a 20 minute walk from the station and city centre. The accompdation was nice, modern and comfortable. Not as good as a traditional hotel and definitely not as quiet/sound proof. When people entered the building the door opening and closing was very loud. They gave me 1 towel for a 4 night and said they'd charge me €5 for a clean towel. So from a hygienic point of view not good at all. It's a cheap enough accommodation but wouldn't stay again. It did what I needed it to.

The exterior of the building and hotel lobby are beautiful, but disappointing decor otherwise. The decor on floors leading to rooms is very disappointing as well room itself. View was a brick wall. Not what we expected of this caliber of a hotel. Breakfast had a good selection and friendly staff.

We had a lot of trouble when none of the appliances worked because of an electric problem and you had to be a brain surgeon to get the washer to work

We were beat after overnight flight to Dublin. Staff helped us find a nearby car park and was available for any and all questions. Room was clean and quiet. Just the place to get our feet back under us before we began our road trip. Also very centrally located - we walked all over central Dublin.

The location was perfect for us and the staff members were so friendly and helpful. Great restaurants in the area within walking distance. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Enjoyed the accommodations so much, we changed our hotel reservations after a 5 day tour in the country, to return to The Buswell for our final 2 days.
