Looking for cheap accommodation in dublin for 1 night

Can anyone advise me of cheap accommodation for 1 sunday night in Dublin? Breakfast is not really required as I have an early flight from Dublin Airport. Travelodge is working out at 80 euros.
Thanks

    travel lodge is the cheapest you are going to get near the airport, and still a 10 min taxi ride away - there is a free phone in reception to book it. I stayed there few weeks ago for early dublin flight after checking with tourist board in oconnell street and it came up cheapest.

    Maybe a b&b would work out better - the area is known as swords to help your search. Also nothing is open in the early hours at the airport to get something to eat pre flight.

    try this too

    Durban house on Lower Gardiner St is cheap and cheerful.. http://www.durban-house.com/index.html

    The Bus Aras and Connolly St station are very near.. the buses start running quite early


    **hmm, on reflection.. might not be much cheaper when you take into account bus fare?

    theres the days inn from 55 euros nice hotel very new sound proofing in rooms less than satisfactory as on very busy intersection and could hear the traffic on third floor as if standing in the street and in very rough part of dublin (dublin my home city so know of this area all too well) no resturants or anything nearby. Stayed there same trip, was last minute booking as would not have opted for hotel in this area but cheaper than travel and would have to take longer taxi ride (do not use bus early in this part of town)

    We used Jacobs Inn last summer. Handy for the bus station. Clean, cheap and has private rooms available.

    I'd recommend doing a search on venere.com - really helpful website with lots of good maps/reviews, and reasonable prices too (which you also don't have to pay in advance)
    Plus for 4% off, use code: BK5HX8W

    Hope that helps
