3 or 4 days before arrival hostel sent me an email saying that they are overbooked and we coudn't stay there! We were already travelling and finding new hostel would be very uncomforatble, not to mention money to loose. Luckily someone did cancellation and we could stay... But I would not recommend this hostel to anyone.

I only stayed one night but it was perfect. Close to the 16 bus stops from the airport. The staff, esp. Alex, were very friendly and nice. I'd stay there again!

I can not give an assessment, because the hostel sent us an cancelation two days before arrival - reason: overbooking. So we needed to search for an other accommodation.

Good location, near to the O'Connell Street. Our private room was small but comfortable. However, the window in the bathroom was broken and the I was cold during the night (I wouldn't stay there during the winter!). The spider in this bathroom was so big, that he probably run his own hostel. The hostel has a well-equipped kitchen and TV-room with games, books etc. Excellent staff. Great value for money!

The hostel is located on a very loud street where lots of busses stop until late at night and from early in the morning. The windows don't keep the noise out at all so we weren't able to sleep very much or very well during our stay. We had a room on the top floor which smelled quite strongly of mould, I think it came from the drain in the shower. On our last night, the toilet was really loud (for minutes) every time it was flushed. Staff was friendly and house nice but wouldn't stay here again.

A very helpful receptionist. Location - about twenty minutes walk from the Temple Bar area. Stayed in a double room (Room 3). A lovely room, spacious, comfortable bed, excellent shower pressure. The downsides: incredibly inconvenient water taps in the bathroom, and the giant piles of laundry by our door (the room was right next to the laundry room).

Stayed in a private bedroom, with bunk beds and a full size bed and a private bathroom. Felt comfortable leaving behind belongings because we had a key to lock up, and could also store our luggage in the lobby. Not the far out of the city center 15 minutes or so- walked everywhere and Ian at the front desk helped point us in the right direction. Very fair price for the accommodation- had a filling breakfast in the morning, hot showers and a bed to sleep in!
