Great hostel, very nice people. Friendly, I loved it! Only one thing: Should give a phone number, preferably a mobile to be contacted. The hostel is in a Island, It dosen't feel very safe not to be able to have any confirmation. Write everywhere that we can not contact them by e-mail but not that we are welcome to leave a voice mail. Note: When I did left a voicemail, they answered very quickely, the owners are great and professional, but we can't know that before to have spend the night.

Perfect location-literally just around the corner from the local pub/food/music place;-) and on the way to the main attractions of the island. Owner super nice and friendly-got breakfast for free (doesn't havven often in hostels).

The Artists Hostel is on the beautiful Aran Islands, and is situated in a quiet corner right near a school, and the downtown area (e.g. supermarket, bank, post office, etc). The owners were very friendly and helpful. The kitchen area was great to cook in, and the living room was spacious and included a fireplace, laptop, TV, etc. As for the bedrooms, they were small, but the beds were very comfortable, and allowed for adequate privacy and a restful sleep. This is the best hostel, bar none.

It was a pleasure staying at Hostel. It was a clean, quiet place, a few minutes away from everything. The owner was very kind and very helpful. Definitely recommended!
