Albany House

Facilities: Renovated from an old building, there is no elevator and the internal structure is relatively complicated. We were arranged in 5XX, but it was actually on the 3rd floor. We walked through the 5th floor, through doors, and the strange structure of winding around. And each floor of the stairs is very high, very tiring, as if climbing to the 10th floor! The decoration is a bit old, but we try our best to maintain the original classical characteristics of the old building. We have made a lot of efforts in decoration, laying red carpets and hanging many oil paintings, especially in the lobby and restaurant. The front desk is very simple and old-fashioned, which is very interesting and decorated with a strong Christmas atmosphere. The room is a bit simple, the facilities are relatively old, especially the bathroom, as if we came to a guesthouse, the door card is not very sensitive, and it seems that there is no air conditioning. Hygiene: So-so, barely pass. Environment: Located in Dublin 2, District 2 is on the south side of the river. It is a relatively safe area and very convenient. You can walk to major attractions, the riverside and shopping centers in Dublin. St Steven’s and a well-known museum are less than 5 minutes walk from the hotel, and there is also a light rail station next to it. The bus needs to cross a graffiti-covered street to get to another main street, which seems to be much less safe. The style is a bit like Camden Town in London, where supermarkets and restaurants are also located. Service: The staff is very enthusiastic, especially the staff in charge of breakfast, who made us feel very welcome and taken care of.

The location is great. The shopping street Grafton street was 5 minutes away on foot. Lidl was about 10 minutes away. We were there 2 hours early for check-in and we were given another room as an alternative so that we didn't have to wait. The breakfast for €5 per person was good value and good. The room and bathroom were clean.
