This is a well located and clean hostel. Unfortunately there is construction on the road right outside with loud noises from 6:30am to past 8pm. Typically when a hotel or hostel has such disruptive construction happening nearby they communicate this in the confirmation email and sometimes have discounted rates but that was not done in this case. There are many more men women, which is fine but one man had a sexually explicit shirt on at breakfast which made me uncomfortable.
Good hostel, but with a lacking of social life
Really enjoyed our stay there. The beds were comfy, the bathrooms clean, and it was nice to have a fully equipped kitchen. The location was perfect as well, and the staff was kind.
Super clean and overall great place to stay. I only stayed one night so not super sure about how social it is, but overall good value for money and is a safe and clean place.
Overall, the stay was just okay. As two young female travelers, we didn’t always feel comfortable due to the largely male, older demographic, likely due to the hostels long-term stay option. There was a single female bathroom per floor, and I saw a man exit it after showering, which felt uncomfortable and was likely caused by the limited facilities. The property felt dated, rooms were small, the elevator smelled bad, and overall cleanliness didn’t meet expectations compared to other hostels.
the staff was very friendly, our private room was clean, the kitchen was clean and the breakfast was more than we expected, the shared bathroom was also quite clean - the toilet flush gets clogged sometimes, you can hear the elevator and doors opening and closing at nighttime - overall we had a nice stay
This was an affordable and relatively safe spot to stay in Dublin. If you’re looking for a place to sleep for one night, it’s a good option. Rooms were nice and spacious. However, the facilities were not very clean. It is not a social hostel (can be good/bad depending on what you want). Location is a little sketchy for walking at night (no issues, but poorly lit). And it is LOUD at night. You will hear the nearby garage door and an intercom going off throughout the night
An sich ein okay gutes Hostel. Allerdings würden im Punkt Sauberkeit gängige Standards nicht eingehalten. Meine Matratze hatte ein sehr großes Pinkelfleck, und da wurde einfach ein neues Bettlaken drüber gespannt. Gemeinschaftstoiletten/Badezimmer sind teilweise tagelang abgeriegelt/defekt. Und der Service per Mail ist eher wenig hilfreich. Das Personal vor Ort war allerdings hilfsbereit und freundlich.
Good spot in Dublin, a lot to do in the immediate neighborhood. Also, not too far from the central area! Beds were very comfy, and clean. Staff were very nice. I’d return again
This hostel is a good walking distance from tourist attractions such as Trinity College and St. Patrick's Cathedral. The beds are comfy and clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Would stay here again!
Great place to stay, a couple of minutes from the main attractions but has so many bars and restaurants within 5 minutes of walk. The staff were very helpful. The place was kept neat and tidy.
Good hostel overall! It was a bit further from the city center than I would have liked and as a young single woman didn’t feel 100% safe walking alone at night as the area wasn’t so well lit and the streets around were low traffic. However, it was a clean and nice place to stay within walking distance to most destinations so I can’t complain too much. It was just a little overpriced I think for the location.
Old building: the shower was in bad condition (rusty and in part broken). There were not the usual small shelves/place to put personal objects inside the bed bunk. No towels included.
Auberge très propre, salon agréable, terrasse. dejeuner plutot leger
Lift out of order but everything else was good. The beds are comfortable
La entrada del condominio es por un bar que si tiene mala facha. No me pasó nada, pero si da un poco de temor ese pedacito de trayecto. Pero ya llegando; el servicio fue muy amigable, la ubicación es buena, el personal muy servicial y las camas muy cómodas.
Alojamiento tipo hostel/albergue juvenil con cuartos, baños, cocina y salón compartidos y comunes.
Very lovely staff. Well located place. Just the breakfast i thought kinda weak, so I had to eat outside to maintain my strenght.
Clean and quiet, aside from a car park gate that loudly opens and closes under the building. Far enough from city center to be away from house but close enough to walk. Lots of great coffee shops around.
Great spot if you’re looking for somewhere close enough to walk to central areas, but not in the middle of the busy crazy bars. A 15 min walk to Temple Bar area, on populated streets with shops folks around. Beds are super supportive, comfortable. Overall the place is SUPER clean, bathrooms get checked 4 times a day. Breakfast is basic toast/cereal/apples, good enough! Only thing is there’s lots of long term residents & older folk, not a bad thing just not the traveller vibe for meeting new ...
