clean

Our room was very clean, the bed comfortable and the staff were kind. Unfortunately, our stay was ruined by the on-site construction that was going on in the courtyard of the building all day starting at or before 8am and going all the way until 5. It was EXTREMELY loud and you could not rest or focus on any work. There was no where to put our bags nor anywhere to put our things in the bathroom. While the room was pretty, the design was not functional. The pool area, which is actually one giant hot tub, was quite dirty. At the end of the stay I mentioned the noise and was given a small credit about 1/8th of what I paid for the stay.

We stayed here in hopes for a quiet last night in dublin after staying at the other Dean and having a disappointing experience. Benni at the front desk was lovely during check in and check out, we had a pretty terrible experience will service at the downstairs restaurant (3 different servers, 1 which was kind) but incredible service at the upstairs steakhouse. The pool area is much better maintained than the other location as well and I wished we had more time to enjoy it. Our room was TINY - I wish they would install shelves up high in these tiny rooms so there's at least somewhere to put our bags. Otherwise, functionally it was okay and decently quiet though we seemingly cannot escape the construction noise early in the morning. Overall, I'd stay here again for the amenities, the quiet area.
