Apologies for all the Travel updates, but I’ve decided this blog should be just as much use for me as you. SoI’ve been updating all the recent hotels etc and the associatted tags so that I can find the good, bad and ugly hotels in the future.
Nice Hotel in the centre of Dublin, 10 mins walk from Temple bar. Stay at the front of the Hotel, ‘cos there’s a drunk man that comes and shouts at the traffic from 1am till 5am.
