Marilyn Mansion

The window wouldn't shut and it was in the 40's. All night we had the wind blow on our faces! Upon emailing the manager, he entered the room the next day, without prior approval, and put a sheet along the opening. He then turned on a heater and left it running all day long. Our suitcases were next to the heater AND THEY HAVE MELTED SPOTS! It was also 90 some degrees in the room when we returned that night. When brought to the receptionists attentions she said there was nothing she could do. There was a hole in the wall by the bedroom window which allowed a lot of cold air to enter the room. It was not the room we booked and there was a ton of space which was not needed. There is a shared bathroom that did not get cleaned everyday as the garbage was still there day after day, and it was very difficult to find. The neighborhood has abandoned buildings with mattresses and garbage thrown all over the yard, it's very difficult to get to from the airport, the neighborhood is very dark and borderline scary at night. The check in process is frustrating, and the staff is not very friendly. Overall, this was a horrible experience and I absolutely do not suggest a stay here, especially if you have children.

The property is well kept, the rooms are nice, and the bed is comfortable. The shared bathrooms are very clean and easily accessible. The breakfast is addition in cost. The staff will not allow you to use the laundry, even if your luggage is lost at the airport. The property is located quite a distance from the fun sites in Dublin. So you will either need to pay for rides, ride busses and transfer, or walk about 45 min to an hour to the locations.

All right for what was required, staff were very pleasant, looked a bit run down especially in its surroundings.

Room 101? Try room 15. There is a constant drip...drip...drip drip...drip....drip drip drip. They have tried to box it in but sorry I can still hear it now. We asked for a swap but the receptionist just apologised and walked off. Hotel is a bit quirky and they took our payment the day before we checked out. Use Hotel as a last resort.

Nice friendly place good value
