The only thing that bothered us was that there was no mirror outside the bathroom, so you couldn't get ready if someone was taking a shower or using the bathroom.

There was some sort of water shortage in Dublin (or so we were told by staff when we checked out) so that we were each only able to take a shower once during our stay and couldn't flush the toilets. It was pretty terrible and pretty much eclipsed everything else. That said, the lockers were only okay (they barely fit anything), the breakfast was alright, it was mostly an average experience.

this should have been a good experience but it was truly awful. the noise was unbelieveable. it came from a nearby nightclub and doesn't stop till 3am. i was put in a different room the next night which smelled badly. the only good thing about this experience was that it helped me understand more what my ansestors endured when they travelled to the new world on the famine ships 150 years ago.

Our room was off the kitchen. I was kept awake all night by a group playing and singing guitar around the kitchen table until 5am. The bed springs were poking out so much, I had bruises in my legs. Our bathroom was filthy. The last night of the stay, the water went out in the property and there were no working toilets or showers--and no apology or compensation from the staff. Breakfast was average: cereal, milk, toast, juice.

Everyone was really kind! And the staff allowed us to check in four hours early because our bus arrived early! We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 room because we had a bunk bed, a full sized bed and a bathroom in the room, it was so relaxing!

The free offers such as free dinner, ice cream, cheese and crackers, walking tours and pancakes are great. Everything has been kept very clean aswell. the lounge and kitchen were lovely places to relax and socialise, however more bathrooms would be nice.

This was the best hostel experience I've had so far! It's in a great location, easily walkable to all the major tourist spots. The reception was friendly, although not always around. The room was very spacious, and our private bath was nicer than my bathroom at home! Both the room and the kitchen/dining area were very clean and well kept. The overall atmosphere of the place was very fun and exciting. The only complaint was that it was a little loud at times, but other than that, a great stay!

Cute hostel! Something got messed up with my booking, but it wasn't their fault. I was supposed to be booked for 2 nights and was only booked for 1. Regardless, they booked me for the other night I needed on the spot. Very helpful staff, and very knowledgeable! Bathrooms in the rooms and the lobby are clean as a whistle. The room we stayed in the first night was a 4 bedroom all-female ensuite and it was akin to a hotel room! Absolutely wonderful! Free breakfast was great too!

Stayed here over St. Patrick's weekend. Rooms were more expensive than normal but it is a high demand time, so that's fine. Very clean facilities with private bathrooms for each 4 bed room. Kind of hard to review on the atmosphere because the city was great but a lot of groups for the holiday weekend so it was a little more difficult to meet tons of different people. About a 10-15 minute walk to Temple Bar area, but the area itself has great cafes and food (I recommend Green Nineteen) nearby.

The hostel is very ok, for Staff, Breakfast (pancakes, on Sunday and Suturday, were very good),clean room.The room is very essential, without shelves,stands, wardrobe and bath mat. If you came from Italy or UE take with you the adaptator for the power spending less than there. If you need a bath you have to ask It to the Staff that will give you (for 2 euro) one for all the day you're going to stay there. the Staff helped us everytime.The location is ok, 5 mins from Grafton Street.

Staff were really helpful and bags were able to be left at the hostel before and after check-in. A short walk from the centre and Temple Bar, but close to St Stephen's Green. Rooms were comfortable and wifi and breakfast were free.
