    Great hostel with good accessibility and location
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Bed in 8-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Breakfast was just okay, not a lot of options and okay quality; more outlets would have been nice, since they were all grouped together and not near the beds, but this may have been room-specific

    Hostel staff was great; the underbed storage was an excellent option; water pressure and shower was excellent; the all-hours dining area was great for bringing back food; location was perfect for exploring Temple Bar and neighboring parts of Dublin

    One lady at the front desk who seemed to be prejudiced, there was a strong bad smell in the toilet, when I arrived back there was a man sleeping on my bed and there should be more plugs available for charging phones / laptops / electronic devises.

    Majority of the staff, awesome location super convenient, super tidy overall and the storage lockers beneath the beds with the possibility of adding a padlock.

    Staff confused my departure date after I had added on a couple of days while there. They did help me out though and directed me to another hostel.

    I liked that breakfast was included. That there is a kitchen to prepare ones own meal. Staff were friendly and helpful

    The area is a party destination so there were people in our room throwing up and making a mess in the bathroom and waking people up through the night, not really the hostels fault but keep it in mind if you need to sleep.

    Well located large Hostel with friendly helpfull staff and decent facilities. Well equiped kitchen and pretty decent buffet breakfast for all guests in the morning.

    The mattress felt like a rock tbh. The temple bar area is very noisy at night so you can hear the people until late from the room

    The location is pefect, the breakfast was complete having in mind the price of the stay. The people of the reception are very kind and the place looks clean

    The shutters didn't isolate the outside light. The cleanliness of the room could have been better, especially in the lockers. The common areas didn't have the heating on,

    The room was so bright at night because of the pub, it made sleeping difficult. I expected the noise, because at the end of the day I was aware there was a pub on the ground floor but the light was something I didn't think would be an issue. I'd advise anyone who books here to get ear plugs and a sleeping mask. I also wish the mirror was closer to the electrical socket, my family and I were in town for an event and it was quite difficult to get ready when the mirror was so far from the socket.

    The location is perfect, very central and within walking distance from most of the landmarks of city centre. Staff was very friendly and the breakfast was grand although quite modest. Very good price for Dublin city centre

    The included breakfast definitely left something to be desired, granted it is breakfast at a hostel, but this would be the only thing that wasn’t a 10/10 for us.

    Great location, friendly and helpful staff, and simple layout with excellent security. Beds were minimalist but comfortable, and the noise from the street wasn’t terrible. Rooms and bathroom were clean, and bathroom was well stocked.

    Some curtains around the beds for privacy would be a wonderful addition! The WIFI wasn't strong in the room I stayed in which wasn't great but not a deal breaker since I only stayed for a night.

    I was met with friendly staff at the reception. The beds were very clean and fairly comfortable. There were also multiple bathrooms in addition to the one inside the room. The location is of course what makes this hostel a steal for the price. It is right next to the temple bar and a short walk from all the wonderful city attraction of Dublin. The malls, the sights all within a short walk!
