Things I like most is everybody has own power socket. I stayed with a group of 7 male roomates in 8 mixed ensuite dorm room which I found it may need to be more considerate... Luckily my roomates were nice. Freebies at every night was great, just you need to be quick to have your portion.

Great rooms for 4 people, with a private bathroom which was amazing, and really confortable beds. It was also very silent. Unfortunately I only stayed there for one night, but I really liked it and I would definitely recommend it!!

The location and quality of this hostel are very good. I had an incident here were my travel companion was thrown out of the hostel at 4 in the morning for drunkenness and the staff threw me out as well. I had nowhere to go, they did not point me in any direction to go, simply kicked me out at 4 in the morning in the rain. The place was great but I've never been treated this way at even the grimiest hostels before.

My experience was fine but two other travelers had an Ipad, Ipod and credit care stolen from our room. I did not feel secure leaving my belongings in the room.

Great place to stay, the only downfall is the breakfast which could include more. When I came to eat there was nothing left, not even milk.

My friends were a little put off by the exterior of the hostel, but as soon as we inside, they were amazed how nice it was. We will make this our usual choice of hostel when staying in Dublin.

Very close to Temple Bar area and an easy walk to St. Patrick's Cathedral and the Guinness Factory! Also, it is very close to the area where tours pick you up! They provided breakfast in the morning at 7am and even put it out early for us one day. They have special every night like an open bar or free dinner which is also a nice addition. There are bins under the beds for your stuff, but bring a lock so you do not have to pay for one! Bring a towel because they are not free! Wifi always worked!

What a great location! Nearby the shopping- and the bar street. We had a room with 4 beds, and a bathroom with a huge mirror. Perfect for 3 girls. The fact that there was no place to put things neither at the bathroom or the other room is the only minus. We had to lay everything on the floor.

We had some problems in our room with a crazy guy during the night, it was not staff's fault, but maybe they should rethink about the organization of the mixed rooms, and most important to indicate the number of the bed.

Nice kitchen. the bathrooms in the rooms weren't the best, I don't think they were cleaned very well. The rooms are cold. One room has a problem with one of the windows. I don't think it was installed properly, when it rained water came in and my bed was right by the window. when I told reception they moved me to a new room right away.
