Great choice of accommodation if staying in Tralee. Very central location and near taxi rank too, for when I needed to travel outside of town. Very competitively priced too, considering it is in the town centre. Helpful staff and over all it seemed like a secure location to stay in as well.

The hostel is the absolute best hostel in the city of Tralee. I have passed through numerous times and I was so blown away by the service at this hostel. The place is in a grand old house and very ornate--the bedrooms and bathrooms are simple and extremely clean. The entire stay was delightful and our group thought that it was the best hostel we had stayed at in Europe--quite a feat considering we have been traveling for the last three months.

The hostel is in a very good location and close to everything, the building was quite nice but could do with some repairs. As regards to the dormitary itself it was very tastefully decorated however..there was no lock on the door, one of the windows was broken and there was no light in the room.
