In overall it was a nice, clean hostel, very reasonable price. However, the internet connection was really bad, they should work on this. Plus, the room was a bit cold.

The Hostel is quite Big and in the center of dublin. The things i missed most where that there where way too less power outlets in the Dorm Room (16 Bed Male).

I have been many other hotels before, some of them were freshly renovated or newly built. But Isaacs Hostel was one of the best places I have ever stayed, way better than I expected. I got what I wanted, a hostel with good location, good athmosphere, valuable for the money. I'm surely gonna go back if I ever visit Ireland again.

Good experience. Low price, convenient location, standard breakfast, clean. Some improvements would be adding more power outlets in each room, free lockers, and offering free airport shuttle like Paddy's Palace (next door) does. Since it is located conveniently, there is also noise at night, especially with the train. Earplugs work well.

Staff were a solid bunch of characters, always friendly and giving a bit of banter. Felt very cosmopolitan with so many people from so many different places, was interesting to talk to everyone. Only gripe is that the showers rarely had enough hot water. Amazing hostel otherwise

The Wifi only works in the lobby & basement and cuts out frequently, so depending on how long you're there it could be a nuisance. Our floor had one shower/toilet outside of our dorm and then 3 of each down the hall. I found in the morning showers were hard to get and was sometimes busy in the toilets, but nothing major! The atmosphere and awesome people I met tehre made up for any flaws though!

Great place for long or short term stays with a great mix of people. Great location, close to Busaras and walking distance to O'Connell St. Staff were really helpful and knowledgeable. Breakfast was really basic (toast, one type of cereal, tea/coffee, juice) but kitchen looked like it had great facilities (didn't actually use it). My room (6-bed mixed dorm) was quite large, and had it's own shower and toilet (shared with another room). Best part is lower ground area - loved it!

It's a nice hostel with good atmosphere, unfortunately the rooms are tiny and crowded, and the beds are not very comfy. Good value for money though.

Had a brilliant stay at Isaacs, its got a fantastic atmosphere with friendly helpful staff. It has clearly been done up recently and all the facilities such as kitchen, toilets and showers are all good and clean! Its very close to the centre of Dublin and has lots of useful things near by such as train station, bus stations and tram stop. Unfortunately it does sit vry close to the train line but this wouldnt stop me staying there again.

Incredible staff and a comfortable enough stay, excellent value for money and opportunities to integrate with other guests. There was general a relaxed atmosphere but everyone felt safe, I would definitely stay there again.

A nice hostel with a friendly staff, but i would say its better to go there if you stay in a group for individuall travellers it might be difficult to communicate with other travelers. A very continung coming and going of people. Awesome Sauna!!!

Location is not terrible but I was on the second floor right opposite the railway and everytime the train passed, everything shook and there are definetely better locations in the city for the same value. Staff was good. Shower water was cold. All the girls in my room had the same problem. There are no lockers in the room, only in the reception area in a not so convenient place. Very noisy.
