comments Was a decent place. I expected a more "bed and breakfast" feel -- this was more like a small hotel with a free breakfast setting. The rooms were quiet and clean -- although quite small -- and the breakfast was most excellent. I suppose you can't ask for much more.

comments We had low expectations of this B&B based on online reviews but booked here because we just wanted a cheap overnight stay. We were pleasantly surprised. Small rooms, but they were clean and functional. Staff were helpful and polite. Good value, if not a place you would want to hang around in all day.

comments the room was ok but the bathroom was old and some tiles had come off. the carpet in the room had a lot of marks, a wooden floor would have been better

comments The room was fine. The breakfast was avarage. For the money we paid it was good value. We weren't warned we would have to pay upfront for the room, so it is a good job we had funds with us straight away. The staff weren't overall friendly at breakfast but weren't rude. Rooms always cleaned and tidied

comments Glern Guesthouse is on a very busy road. Our room was at the back of the house but I could envisage problems with traffic noise if the room was at the from. The room was very clean and the breakfast was adequate.

comments Receptionists were very friendly. Rooms very small. There occured a water hasard while we stayed over. We were relocated right away. Thanks. Breakfast was crowded. We have to wait. Nobody came to fetch for us nor introduced the manners of the kitchen.

comments Breakfast was good. In the bathroom, the shower drain was partly blocked, and was not fixed during our stay despite our request. Noisy street below, and the windows let the noise through.

comments The room was rather small and had the appearance of not being completed after refurbishment. There was a complete lack of information in case of fire, as there was an alarm it was very worrying that nobody knew what to do or where to go.

comments Anything on the front may have been noisey because the guest house is on a busy street, but our room on the back of the house was very quiet. The location is what makes this guest house a good find. It is within walking distance to Bus Aras, the Connolly train station and all the tourist sights of downtown Dublin.

comments Daily staff did their best but most did not speak more than basic English. Never saw the "family" management who advertised as the owners. Room I wanted to complain about the tattered, dirty and torn 2 seater couch in the room; 6 days without a bedding change;a Full Irish breakfast whose ingredients probably came from a Poundstretcher sale. I thought the Glen really was a family run guesthouse. Now I know better ! I'm happy to commend the daily staff for the way they tried to help.

comments we informed Glen Gueshouse about our wish of having a non-smoking room with a view. When we arrived we were allocated a room in the cellar with a window view of the rubbishe dump. The bathroom was damp and there was no running warm water. We booked a doublebed and ended wit two single ones. The breakfast was simple and very basic. The next day we were allocated another room towards the road. The windows could not open and it was a smokers room. Not recommendable for a stay for more than one night!
