Reviews of The Apache Hostel

Location

Uncomfortable and the sheets are not clean even if they are washed but it is not suitable for a hostel. There is not even a place to eat or cook. There is not even a microwave. I suggest that you address the shortcomings.

Location

Room is falling apart, very uncomfortable spring mattress, the fluorescent light made the room look like a prison cell. The hostel is adjacent to a busy pizza shop and the workers there were shouting and laughing till closing time. You can hear everything in the room. No consideration for guests. Absolutely overpriced for what it is---- pick another place, you won't get any sleep in this one.

Look the location is undeniable. You are in the heart of the city and near the luas and various cafes, pubs and restaurants. We stayed here the night of Oasis and were just looking for a bed to sleep and a roof over our heads. You get a 30% discount off apache which is a nice touch.

There should be a door between the kitchen of apache and the hallway/reception upon entry. The single bunker room was decent- the room itself could do with a deep clean- the mattresses are yellow. The bunker room in 6 bed mixed dorm- are what are they are described as- the people we stayed with were all coming from the same convert so we had a great laugh. I’ve stayed in many many hostels, this one unfortunately is just a last resort. I don’t believe the price we paid matches the extreme basicness of this hostel ie. There is no kitchen area, meeting area for guests/lounge area: whiles other hostels in similar price range give or take a few quid, do.

Good

Only thing I liked about the property was when I left my keys at reception and walked out the main entrance at the end.

Too many items to mention. wouldn't wish this place on my worst enemy. Prisoner of war camp springs to mind. To very quickly summarise, my friend set foot in the property for all of 2 seconds before having to walk out. His room had no windows and ventilation, smell was atrocious. Trip hazards making me way up to the top floor where I was located. Never seen such bodged decor in all of my life (takes cowboy builder to a whole new level). Place was rather untidy messy and the guy working on the front desk couldn't be anymore unhelpful if he tried. Made a booking for 2 of us, put in separate rooms, requested whether we could be put in the same (stated these had already been taken) at 10pm still no sign of the other people, so we raised it again, Just stated "it is what it is". Never stay in this place you will regret it for the rest of your life.

Location.. that’s it

This is single handedly the worst hostel I have ever stayed in. The room I was given had no window or ventilation. The complex was practically falling apart and it lacked basic amenities like a plug socket for the upper bunks. Walked out after 5 minutes and booked other accommodation.

Location was good

This place is attached to a pizza joint and the delivery riders use the hostel's entrance: the bell kept ringing until 5am and they talk/greet each other really loud. It was especially loud after a guest left at 3am and left each and every door behind them swung wide open between the room and the pizza joint. I was tired enough to sleep through most of jt but others i was travelling with booked a hotel after that. On top of that the room i was in had a street artist camping there and he would use the middle of the night to make sketches and drawings next to a very bright flashlight. When another guest asked him to turn it off he got hostile and woke more people up (including me) with his loud response. Furthermore i was a bit surprised when a member of the staff at the pizza place took his smug pleasure in being exceptionally rude and unhelpful to me.

The food next door

The manager was unpleasant the add was badly explained the rooms were clammy theres no windows in some rooms Naaaa no not good

Great location

Bit of a basic hostel, outdated a little but worth the price considering location and other prices in dublin

At first I was a little scared when i saw that it's hotel at the back of Pizza place, but then i falled in love. It was very quiet, very clean. There was plenty of toilets so there was no problem with that matter even in 8 people dorm where i was staying. They have even a fridge, kettle and things like that available for everyone. Great localization, you have 24h/7 opened spar across the street and you are basicly on Temple Bar. Every place worth visiting is in the maximal distance of 20 minutes walking. It is really cheap compared to localization and similar places nearby. Great experience to stay at Apache, definetly will stay there one more time!

Bedding looked little shabby. Nowhere to charge the phone if you're on the bunk bed

Room was cleaned, bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly.

Street noise was pretty loud
