Very nice, good location! The staff is really nice and helpfull. Everything was clean. The only down side is that the beds where akwardly close to eachother and have no curtains, I didn’t feel super confortable. (I was in one of the 8 person mixed dorm). I switched rooms for the last night and it was much better!

It was a wonderful place to stay!! I didn't even realize how great the location was until we were at the Dublin airport and scoping out our route to the pubs in the area. Everyone in our hostel were super friendly, I'd recommend having a flexible plan in Dublin so you can freely go grab a cheeky pint with your roommates :) It's located in the heart of the city right on the Liffey River just steps away from a massive pub scene. since it's on the river its super easy to navigate to everything.

Overall okay and not dirty, but older facilities and in temple bar area which is a bit trashy and full of rubbish and pubs. Very quiet in the room! No age restrictions so a lot of older (like 50+ years old) guests. Some sketchy clientele and right in front of a bus stop so immediately when you leave the building there is always a mass of people awaiting there

La atención dejó bastante que desear. Pagué mi reserva con Hostelworld, como siempre lo he hecho, y empezaron a insistir en que tenía que pagar toda la reserva por adelantado en un link aparte. No me gusta hacer pagos en enlaces extraños y mucho menos cuando te presionan a pagar rápido. Pedí salir media hora tarde para desayunar sin problemas, y me dijeron que no hacen late check-outs, contradice un poco la información que ponen en las habitaciones, la hab estaba medio vacía. Mala ener...

This hostel wasn’t bad but it wasn’t fantastic. I stayed here two separate times on my week trip to Ireland and compared to my hostel in Galway this was just ok. Staff was very nice and helpful, definitely was a secure building, location was great, but the rooms weren’t that clean and neither was the en-suite bathroom even after the cleaning crew came in. The atmosphere of the common area was just meh, I didn’t spend much time down there at all. Other guests were loud well after 10pm.

Great location near the pubs, restaurants, bus stops, train station, museums, parks, and tourist attractions. The hostel has a nice view overlooking the river Liffey.. Important for backpackers is that a grocery store is nearby .The staff are friendly, courteous, and helpful arranging day trips all over Ireland. Abigail’s is great for those seeking a restful, quiet trip and have quiet hours at night, but Fleet Street and the pubs are only minutes away by foot.

The front desk staff amazing & patient & knowledgeable because I have to ask the same questions to lol what I say wrap my brain around!! The information they provide!! I take long to process! & yes the place was clean and quiet. I did not use the kitchen because I was only in for a long weekend from Philly, but I saw families young people older people and at 56 years old , That’s my first stay at hostile. It definitely was more value than I could’ve asked for. Thank you again Anne from Phill...

Good, secure, clean place to sleep for the night, but not the most welcoming vibe. I got lucky and made friends with my roommates, but I think it would otherwise be quite difficult to make friends here. Fantastic location right in Temple Bar—this was the highlight.

A bed is a bed. This bed happened to be quite uncomfortable. Lots of older people and no social vibe. Seems like organized tours stay there. Location is superb. Overall if you aren’t trying to meet people or want to do it through the app it’s fine. Just wish it was more comfortable. Bathroom was the best part.

I could not have found a better location. Right in the centre of everything I needed to do & see. The kitchen is equipped enough to enjoy some cooking time, the sheets are clean, the staff very sweet & nice, & meeting other travellers in the social room was easy. I enjoyed my stay!

Very good location and nice views from the rooms. Each bed had a charger, light and shelf which was very useful. Kind staff and nice kitchen.

L'endroit est super agréable, ils proposent/présentent plein d'activités sur et autour de Dublin. Le bâtiment est propre. Les seuls points négatifs seraient au niveau de l'emplacement et de l'isolation des fenêtres : on entend tout ceux qui passent dans la rue et au niveau des lits qui sont un peu petits et terriblement bruyant ce qui est très dérangeant lorsque certains se lèvent tôt ou rentrent tard.

Very poor pillows, unbelievably thin. Also imho they should screen the guests a bit better. In my room there were three men clearly using the hostel as a temporary home (they weren't tourists), with pretty bad higiene. They would have a disgusting body odor, almost homeless-like. And one of them would eat and keep stinky food inside the room. Caught him eating with his bare hands while he was on his bed. I almost threw up with the smell.

Absolutely no atmosphere, no activities at all. Geared towards an older crowd it seems. The plugs above my bed also did not work so I had to use the common area to charge my devices every day. You also have to make your own bed which for the price is a bit outrageous. The only plus is that it is kept very clean which is great. Don’t go here if you’re a young solo traveller wanting to meet people because it won’t happen.
