    Very good place for stay in cheaper price. DueJust for veg/vegan people, there is eating discomfort.

    Due to the common area of eating, the eating comfort was absent. Because, if somebody is vegan or vegetarian they are forced to eat at the same highly smelly place where non-veg is being cooked/ grilled making eating discomfort.

    The cleanliness in the bathrooms and security systems in the hostel premises were good. Staff behavior was very friendly. Also, availability of staff 24/7 was very good thing. The hostel is well maintained.

    Cheap hostel in dublin. A bit of an uphill walk from the city center but totally manageable. Staff were friendly and the room was nice. Beds and curtain to cover was worn. Metal rod holding curtain fell down multiple times when closing curtain. Drawer under the bed to place your items in was rather small. Could not fit my cabin sized backpack in there. Also need to bring your own lock. Very affordable price and a decent stay for short term

    My dad and brother weren't able to sleep well in the men's dorm, I think their room was facing the street so they could hear the cars passing by, they could also hear the noise from the shower room.

    The location is good, near meetup point for the tour and near bus stops. Room and bathroom are all clean.

    On a sunny day it was horribly hot in the bedroom, there's no aircon and the window can't be fully opened. The temperature got bearable only in the early morning, I couldn't sleep until like 5 am. Water pressure in the female bathroom was very low. The pillow case was dirty

    A bed with dark curtain gives privacy and protects from light. There's enough space for everybody in the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen

    A board with the month's activities is present in the games room. Consider watching it. It's not very visible and so we missed the pub crawl event where we would have loved to go. In addition, it is very good for working but more complicated to make friends, people go there mainly to work. We did not think to ask for our cash deposit at the end of the stay and it was not returned to us directly when we returned the keys. Fortunately we still had a friend there. Thanks to the hostel for finding a solution but it would be nice to give it back automatically at the end without us having to ask for it.

    It was very clean, quiet and well located. There are games that are available for free. We are safe and staff are available all day and night..

    The only thing that disappointed me was the “shared kitchen” area: it only had tables with microwaves and small ovens. As an Italian, I was expecting proper stovetops to be able to cook.

    Everything was fine – clean bathrooms with hot water and rooms that were not too warm. Privacy was generally okay, except for the fact that some female staff members entered the male dormitory for maintenance work without even knocking.

    The location has a lot of potential but feels a bit empty and sparsely furnished. It could easily be a lot cosier and comfortable

    We were staying in the 4-bed female dorm which was nice because we had the room to ourselves. Also liked the small garden with tables to sit outside

    The 2 beds dormitory was very small room and the lockers under the bed is very very small, my backpack (or if you are travelling with a luggage) would never fit there. Since I was on a same room as a friend we had no issues to leave everything outside. There is also no curtain on the windows, so if you are changing clothes in the room, all the neighbours will see you.

    Hostel was nice, it's a hostel after all. Staff were very friendly. The outside it's kind of durty and old but that is fine also. Just stayed for one night.

    On the website it is mentioned that there is a shared kitchen, although in reality (as far as we were aware and knew) there wasn't one, only a snack bar, so we couldn't make any food and had to go to convenience stores all the time. Another downside is that there isn't an elevator, only stairs, so if you have a heavy luggage, best to train your muscles beforehand. Be aware that there is a possibility/chance of living with strangers/a stranger if you book, for example, a 6-people bedroom for 5 people. The location itself is a bit sketchy, no surprise, there are many homeless people around, it's very trashy, unclean, but most of the people are nice nonetheless, just going out alone is a bit scary.

    I liked the atmosphere and the reception, they were really helpful and nice. The terrace was nice, aesthetic, you could enjoy yourself to peace and quiet, hang out with your friends and enjoy snacks, a good card game and so on. The beds were enjoyable and were comfy for even tall people, it wasn't too hot or too cold. Although the location isn't the best, you can find all the transportations you need to get everywhere, most shops are all close to each other, so you don't have to walk far at all.

    The room was very basic. While the bunk bed was simple, it was comfortable enough. But the room was quite hot, with no air moving. Fans would be a great addition, given the current summer heat! Maybe a chair, small table, and extra hooks would add so much to the appeal of the room!

    The reception crew were great, check-in was a breeze, and once you get your bearings, it's easy to find your way round! Great well equipped kitchen, dining area, and lounge options around the place. The bathroom areas are big and roomy, but the shower plumbing could be better. So good to have a laundry, but expect to stand in line! Buses are close by, or take a 20 min walk to town. Easy!
