Great stay, don't use card to pay security deposit

Only 5-6 min walk from Jervis carpark. EXTREMELY handy to Temple Bar. Ate at nearby Tomahawk - delicious steak and sides! Check-in was lovely - great staff. Room had balcony - nice view. Lovely gesture for hubby's birthday - greetings note and free glass of prosecco each. Hotel is lovely. Late check-out at no extra cost. Only fault - had to pay 50 Euro safety deposit. Was assured at check-out it would be repaid within a few days (!) HOWEVER, I noticed on my bank statement that, due to currency exchange between sterling and Euro I did in fact pay £42.77 and only received £40.23 when it was refunded 3 days later. Whilst it's only under £3, the principle of the matter is there. Had I known I was going to lose money, I would have paid 50 Euro cash instead.

No problem with cleanliness BUT we had no control over the heating - first night room too hot - we didn't mention this but the other two nights we had to go and ask for them to put the heating on in the room - and that is at the end of December

Rooms are a little dated especially the bathroom. Balcony light didn't work and neither did the table lamp so lighting was pretty poor. There was one particular bar staff that was absolutely rude he had a disgusting attitude to the point I could no longer drink in the bar because of his rudeness which seriously needs sorting, he is a big let down to your team and for that reason I wouldn't come back here or recommend this hotel it put a big downer on the the weekend as your dreaded bumping into him!

The room was big and looked nice, but a lot of things were starting to get a bit tired. Shower head dribbled out a soft mist and was almost unusable. Was also no air conditioning in the room which I was amazed by for this price point.

Beds good but rooms and bathrooms specifically need upgrading, black mould stains and chipped off enamel on bath, bathroom floor cracked and chipped. Similar issues with communal areas, badly needs investment, certainly not up to a 4 star standard.
