“Celtic Lodge Guesthouse occupies a prime spot in Dublin's city center, but some rooms apparently suffer from street noise at night. Recent refurbishment gives it a fresh feel, and the central location makes exploring the city easy. I think that lighter sleepers might want to request a room away from the street.”

Acceptable Stay, Concerning Room Condition

unclean room visible stains
The staff showed really good kindness and proved very helpful with local directions.
My room presented a significant problem, because it felt unclean. Stains marred the throw at the bed's foot. Such oversights detract from an otherwise acceptable experience.
