Nice and friendly hostel, located exactly on city center and in front of the Liffey River. What I most liked was the living room, very cozy! The negative point for me is that our room (6 double bed) was extremely small, with no space except the "corridor" that connects to the bathroom. No lockers on rooms. Always good music on, it's like a "light rock and roll hostel".

My stay was awful. Too much noise in the smoking area after 10. We could here everything because the windows are so thin. I didn't sleep at all, my worst night ever.

Hi Audrey, We try very hard to please most of our guests most t of the time, but I learnt a long time ago its impossible to please all of our guests all of the time. This is a fun hostel where people are out to have a good time and enjoy each others company. Our windows are double glazed so they are not thin . Perhaps if you had got out of bed and closed th ewindow you would have heard no noise. We also have ear plugs at reception for people like yourself who are sensitive to noise. Our smoking area is closed at 0200 hrs so I find it very hard to understand how come you did not sleep. It might be better if you stayed in suberbia Dublin nex time . The Proprietor.

Lovely hostel, great (free) breakfast, fantastic location right across from Temple Bar/ Trinity College, staff was always helpful and nice, especially Bobby, beds were as comfortable as bunk beds come. The 24 person dorm could use individual lights by each bed- that way others arent keeping people up with one set of lights. And the showers flooded the bathrooms a bit. Nothing grave. It was a great hostel and I'd stay there again!

Although I adored the hostel, the beds were the most uncomfortable I have ever slept on.

Bobby and Paul from the reception were very welcoming and made us feel at home! The common areas are great and the bar is also nice. The bathroom in the room was very clean. Room was quite noisy and there was no lockers under our beds. Also no plugs near the beds. Appart from that, would totally recommend it!

Good deal. The only problems are the doors that almost impossible to close without making any noise and this waking up other people in the room.

The hostel was clean and adequate. Luggage storage is underneath the bed in cages. You can rent a lock for €8 but you only get part of that back. Many of the cages are actually broken in how you affix the lock, so if yours is - go downstairs and ask for a chain to secure the luggage. There is additional luggage storage behind the desk. I couldn't get the wifi to work, but I saw other people using it with no trouble. The road is a bit noisy until abt midnight, but then it is easier to sleep

The hostel is very central right near O'Connell bridge and only a short walk from temple bar. The room was a bit small but ok. It can get very noisy at night because the walls seem very thin and you can hear people talking and screaming in other hostel rooms all night. The staff was really helpfull with all our requests. Free wifi works really good and the hostel has everything you need for a stay in dublin.
