Clean pleasant hostel in a great location. However, I payed extra for a city view room and was on floor 5 of 10 which wasn't great.

Clayton Hotel Burlington Road
The staff was wonderful and very welcoming and I was checked in way earlier than my 3pm check in time slot. The hotel is located in a very nice neighborhood and close enough to the city center and the Dublin must see sites!! Highly recommended!!!
