No elevator??? Dirty bathrooms.

Good location

The only thing I really didn't like was not being able to locate it. I was very lucky and grateful that someone staying at the hostel walked in because I would have been looking forever.

The Dublin Quayside is a good hostel, though it is almost impossible to find because it is unmarked. The young man who checked me in was superb. The room was comfy and I appreciated not being in a bunk bed. The location is great. All in all, I had a good experience.

Not that clean but OK. You won't have access to the kitchen unless you stay for more than one week which is odd. Beds aren't that comfy. Some of the showers are clogged and water builds up especially the ones upstairs. Regular service is required indeed. I find increasing the prices on the weekend is unfair as it is already expensive for a hostel (I know Dublin is an expensive city but still ...)

Great staff, nice vibe, people are friendly. Great location.

Personally I think more shared bathrooms will be a plus, we needed to go to the below floor to the toilet. But this was not a great deal to be fair. Fits the purpose and the price compare with other places in Dublin. Maybe indications of the name outside? We were confused as it’s not indicated that that’s a hostel

Well connected with the city center, not as expensive as other accommodations and also quiet then other more centric hostels. Reception is open 24 h and staff was really great and accommodating, my locker had a broken lock and they fix it for when we came at night. They also kept our luggage after we check out so we could do some more visiting on the city before heading to the airport. Has a spacious hall with tables where you can relax or have lunch and free coffee and tea.

There's no sign for the hostel, so you just have to find the door on the street and hope for the best. They're is also a beer garden right beside it, so noise levels can be quite loud, so not great for sensitive sleepers. The pillow provided also could use replacement.

The biggest thing with this hostel is that everyone has their own beds, no bunks. Makes sleeping alot easier and there is less people on each room.

It is a little noisy outside but that is to be expected in a big city.

The location of his hostel is amazing and it is a great deal.

Noise and low pillows

Good location, fantastic price, good network of travel, is a busy noisy area though

Stayed in July 2025

No sign to locate the place which is very bad at night, can be loud and there is light in each room which is permanently on as an apparent 'legal requirement' which made it impossible to sleep a wink.

Friendly staff, big common area, decent location, good wifi.

Very echoey meaning that you can be heard from anywhere

Location was extraordinary with it being 10-15 minute walk to The George as well as on the Luas Line

Separate bathrooms for male & female Room was too hot - windows didn't open enough For a dorm bed it was quite expensive

Lots of space in the communal areas Efficient showers and clean bathroom Easy check-in and check-out

No blackout curtains so without a mask and earplugs you will wake up at 5am. No seating in the showers, nowhere to keep your clothes dry. No bathroom on top floor.

The rooms were clean and the beds were decent. Not overcrowded. Convenience store nearby. Lovely staff.

Single shower room/toilet needs renovation. As for the shared shower room and toilets, I prefer if they are separate male and female

One of my roommate, he’s from Somalia, I don’t judge people by nationality at all but he’s really selfish and hard to share a place with people, always complain and force us what he need and he never take our request at all. I mean I wasn’t lucky enough to be with him during my stay. There might be many complains about him, at least people around me were so uncomfortable by him so we wanted to make some acts to him by the hostel… And two things about hostel that kitchen doesn’t have proper knife and cutting board so that hard to cook something properly. There are three shower places but two of them on second floor can’t supply warm and hot enough water supply. That’s it

First of all, all the staffs at this hostel are so kind and helpful all the time I was really comfortable with them during my stay. And in my room, three all bed are individual so that I was able to sleep as relaxing. And there are three different shower rooms, we don’t have to wait someone finish, at least there are vacant one way or the others.

The restroom and showers should be cleaned 4 times a day, not all the guests use hygiene in a common bathroom.

Nice staff, they talk different languages ( English plus or Spanish or Portuguese

Lack of signage outside made it initially difficult to find, and the doors are opened using a smart phone app which isnt the most intuitive.

Great location along the main river, very airy and spacious with high ceilings, massive rooms and alot of space to relax around. The staff member on duty was also an absolute delight, super friendly and helpful.

Facilities could have been cleaner. No clear marking on enterance identifying that this place was indeed the hostel. Just an unassuming door. Walls are thin so it was a bit noisy.

Appreciated them accomodating my last minute reservation. Location was good. Dublin is a pretty walkable city so anything is within a fair distance. Room was pretty bare bones but clean and secure.

Stayed in May 2025

There is only one toilet / bathroom / shower room (on the first floor), and there are lots of quite high extra fees for everything

Great stuff and not that many beds in one room
