My husband and myself are seniors and at first thought that we were perhaps out of place as mostly younger people stay at your hostel. We found the younger people to be very friendly, cordial, and intelligent. Your location is ideal for those who want to see Dublin from the inside out as most tourists don't tend to see it. Even though the train is nearby it didn't trouble us one bit. Your staff were very accommodating, helpful, and informed. Cheers to you. We are 60s hippies.

I got there late and had to leave early, so I could not fully experience this place, but what I did experience seemed pretty good. I would certainly stay here again.

The walls are like paper. Couldn't sleep much. Very nice place though. Very clean and well organized. One of the best hostels I've ever been to.

Design a separate meeting/breakfast room to improve the atmosphere while eating. Currently the breakfest is served besides the reception!

The location of the hostel was good, walkable distance to most of attractions in dublin city. However, the room i was located at was right next to the railway (literally 3 -4meters apart from the window) and it was so noisy... found it hard to sleep whenever train went past. No lockers in the room & they charge 2 euros for luggage storage (and 10 euro deposit). I've stayed at so many hostels and this was the first time i had to pay $ for it. Staff were friendly.

Was a great weekend, 1st time in a hostel and didn't have a single problem, that I didn't cause my self. Area is great only 10 min walk to temple bar, and 25min to the factories, for a drinking weekend with your mates its perfect. only problem was the train line just out side you window but i only started to notice that around 9am. So it was a gd wake up call to get going. thanks again

The rooms smells, but the bathrooms were very clean all the time. So it's ok if you drink enough. Staff seem to have no idea about who is in which bed, room or even if you are staying there. No lockers in the bedrooms.

Nice, clean hostel! There was only one downside - that is the rooms at the front of the hostel face directly onto the tram line and it can get rather loud at night, as the trams are only 10-20 meters or so away.. But just use ear plugs all it all good!

Staff were super friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean good size and windows for fresh air. Central location is a big plus. Only thing that let it down for me were the pillows easily worst I have slept on and the showers don't have a changing area so hard to keep clothes dry. oh and no lockers in your room. The Internet was reasonable and free wifi in basement and ground floor and cheap transfer to the hostel from the airport if you book online via Isaacs website. Would stay here again.

During the Saturday night I was there, I returned to the room at 11:30 not too late for a Saturday night, but at least one possibly two were sleeping or attempting to sleep. As the room was in pitch black darkness, with no light from the one window, at my end of the room, I had no alternative but to put on the light. A dimmer switch would have been very useful in the circumstances. The worse part was yet to come. From about 4:00 AM someone's phone "beeped" EVERY TWO MINUTES, FOR FOUR HOURS!!!!

Everything was great except the bathroom was a little dirty and the rooms were a little too hot at night. Other than that it was great!
