Connolly was extensively refurbished about 7 years ago.
Looking at it recently, it is the dirtiest railway station in Dublin. The Grey tiles seem to pick up all the dirt.

The main entrance of Amiens St is dark and the walls were done in a cheap cement render and look dirty. The whole place looks like it could do with a complete clean (and regular).

Compare Connolly to Belfast Central which which looks ugly from the outside yet is spotless in side and is more akin to an airport. The materials used during the refurbishment seem to be far superior to the ones used by IE.
