One of my favourite places in Dublin, kind of skewed by the fact that i stayed here for 4 years. Everything was conviniently located, Dunnes, Pharmacy, GP, coffee shops, restaurants like Zaytoon, Elephant castle. Reg. the cubes, be careful they have had existant water and fire safety issues.

Guest reviews
The Beacon averages 4.3 out of 5 across 1,819 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
As a long term resident, I would avoid renting or buying an appartment here. The fire alarms go off randomly for long periods of time several times a day/week for no reason, this has been going on for years, is really disturbing. The elevators are usually out of service, the common areas are dirty. The location is convenient, but is not enough to compensate the bad management.
