I have reservations in Dublin starting 2 June. I have the opportunity to fly to Dublin on space available standby. Because of this, I do not want to wait until 1 June to see if there might be space for me. I will be watching the flight for days before if things start to look tight for 1 June, I’ll leave one to three days earlier. If I get there early, any suggestions for a reasonable hotel for a single that I might rent at the last minute?

It looks like there’s low demand for Dublin accommodations for June 1– which falls on Sunday. There are plenty of options in the $150-$190 range and that is low for central Dublin. You might take a look at the StayCity Aparthotels which have several locations.

I'd make a free cancelation reservation through Booking.com (24 hour cancellation window, usually). As Kenko said there seems to be plenty available around June 1.

I suggest contacting the hotel you have booked to let them know your situation. If this is indeed a low-demand time frame, perhaps they would expand your reservation and allow you to cancel one night at a time. A lot of folks on the Forum book the night before anyway so that they can check in and freshen up upon arrival (as most flights are overnight). You chose that hotel for a reason, so maybe give them the option before you start looking elsewhere.
