Jacobs Inn Reviews

A well run hostel, breakfast times i found finished to early, handy having the shower in the corridor, but more showers would be nice , as 1 shower in a ten bedded room not so good

I've been staying at Jacob's Inn while doing a course, so I'm not really in a position to evaluate it as a holidaymaker. The review would probably have been better if I'd been able to participate in hostel-organised activities. Still, I'd have no hesitiation recommending Jacob's Inn to a visitor.

This Hostel is ok to spend a few time in Dublin, but, all in all, I will say that there is a lack of ambience, the room are good but the bathroom smells a little bit, the ground floor lack natural light (is a little bit dark) and there's not a proper room to have the breakfast (it is to small in comparison to the number of guests) and common places are too noisy.

Easy to find, good location and nice and tidy. Not a total WOW but a decent hostel.

It was exactly what you'd expect at a hostel. Friendly, helpful staff and relatively close to the city center. I'd recommend his hostel.

I had a room for two people (not a dorm). The cost for the room was 40 euros per person. The main problem was the tap in the toilet. It was very hard to use and it gave water only 2 seconds and then turned off. The tap was filthy too. The pillows were also way too thin to use.Otherwise, the hostel was ok and the location was excellent. I was surprised though that I would have got A room for two in hotel Inn express near the airport nearly 20 euros cheaper.

Liked it so much I will be going back for a couple of nights before I leave Ireland. Very comfortable. Knowledgeable staff. Very, very clean.

Good location, nice staff and clean! I will be back! :-)

The bathroom inside the rooms was not very clean at all (in fact, one of the most dirt I have ever stayed in) and there was sun light getting inside the room every morning (I am the kind of person who loves to wake up late in vacations). The locker is not for free (2 EUR per night) but it is very large and you can put everything there! The location is fair, it feels safe inside and the Atmosphere is quite OK. For the price/quality it was a good business!

stayed here after gnr at o2... def would not stay again place could do with a good clean.. very very noisy..a guy snored all nite ,cudnt get any sleep.. 1 guy came in bout 4 n turned on the light,woke everybody up.. wud not recomend it at all..

The bed was very hard, but this might suit some people. Just not what I was used to or experienced at any othe hostel I stayed at on the trip.

Everything is brand new and all is very clean. Good instalations and security. When we leaving we forgot a straightening irons. When we realize we contacto with the hostal and they kept the object till we returned to recover it. Excelent behaviour of the hostal.

A nice place to stay a few days. I will come back soon

This is a hotel in the guise of a hostel. At hostel prices (self and Dad went for a private twin, two bunk beds in a room one on top of the other with en suite facilities), we got more or less a hotel room. Similarly, like a hotel the common area was very quiet with just the two or three guests around and all were busy with their internet etc., .unlike a cheap-n-cheerful hostel with a healthy buzz of youthful activity in the common areas. Perhaps it was just a quiet day?

Was a good hostel easy to find from the airline bus. Staff was helpful we will stay there again

Staff was very helpful with any questions that we had.

No atmosphere felt like i was staying in a hotel. All common areas are locked by midnight . It was very clean, most of the staff were quite friendly. Wasnt happy having to pay 2 euro a day to use a locker

It was a very good hostel. The location was good. Only a 5 minute walk to the city center, and very close to the major train station. They offered a free walking tour of the city, (which was alot of fun!) and guides for trips all over Ireland. I really enjoyed my stay.

Right by the bus station and ten min walk to temple bar not the best part of Dublin but ok. Staff were ok just average. Computers didn't work and tv also, common room was in use all night so couldn't use it. But all said it is a good hostel.

Close to the bus however is a bit of a walk to the town centre and cool night life. Laundry was broken and staff assistance was average.
