Positive Reviews
positive:
Good location just out of the centre
The location was perhaps guest's favourite aspect of Glenogra. Many were attending events or exhibitions at nearby RDS, and found the location just perfect since it was only a few hundred yards away. Also mentioned was that the centre of Dublin was very accessible by fast and frequent public busses.
positive:
Breakfast was a hit
Though it didn't seem to be included in most guests' room-rate, many did add it on and were very glad they did. The breakfast was overwhelmingly described as very well prepared, varied, and served in sufficient quantities to really set guests up for the day.
positive:
Very impressive communal areas
While reviews of the room décor and fittings were mixed, an overwhelming majority of guests both liked, and were impressed by, the public areas. They described them as grand and very well decorated and fitted.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Some questions concerning value
Quite a number of guests expressed their opinion that the guest house was too expensive for what it offered. In their minds the prices reflected those of a luxury hotel or excusive guest house, and Glenogra did not deliver that sort of experience.
negative:
Wi-Fi a bit spotty
Unfortunately Glenogra has not seemed to manage to escape the curse of poor hotel Wi-Fi. Like many hotels, quite a few guests mentioned that the Wi-Fi was very unreliable, either being too slow, or sometime not available at all.
negative:
Problems with the TV's
A surprising number of guests mention that they had problems with their TV's. The problem was usually that it was not tuned in properly and they could get either no channels, or only one, a state of affairs that left them frustrated, unhappy and with nothing to watch on the telly.
