The location was excelent, very central and close to everything. We stayed in a 10 bed bedroom, it was relatively clean, and beds had curtains so you could have a little privacy as well. Breakfast was also decent for the price. However it lacked some vegetables.

Only a quick stay before a flight but the receptionist was absolutely lovely. I didn’t catch his name but after a long days travels I was completely exhausted and his friendly personality definitely made my day so much better. We chatted about ancestry while he was doing the check in process and afterwards while I was eating in the common area he sat at reception playing guitar. Very great atmosphere and great facilities. Brilliant location. Wish I stayed here the last time I visited Dublin.

"Good"? More like Excellent. Once you get through the busy reception it's a haven of peace and tranquility and spacious everywhere. Have some patience, staff is great. Brazillian hub. Thank you for the great shower. For €1,90 you can buy gloves, bleach and sponges in the Lidl if you want a spa experience for €20. But the place is clean enough everywhere. Book 3 nights during weekdays for less then €60 for calm. But even in a busy weekend it's still calm. It's a gem through a little Dublin Soho in a grand historic street a 2 minute walk from O Connel Street.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location for town, we got upgraded from a private twin room with a shared bathroom to a private 4 bed dorm with an en-suite. The room was clean, beds comfy and the staff were really friendly. The breakfast was good, just toast, cold meat, cheese, fruit, salad and soup but a great addition to the already cheap stay.

Good value for money, in that it was cheap and right beside Connolly station. Clean, with a comfortable bed and warm water in the shower. There's a nice bar in the foyer area and they serve good food too. Overall, a good hostel if you're on a budget.

Think youth hostel, dormitories, study rooms, multi cubicle showers and toilets, kitchen, laundry, helpful staff, cafe. Quiet safe clean rooms, solid enclosed bunks with a comfy mattress, shelf, light and charger inside the bunk and a curtain to for privacy. Also a locker/drawer under the bunk for stuff. Didn't hear any noise from any other guest during the night Staff friendly, helpful and efficient Nice area for cafe, old stained glass architecture, relaxed with other guests Outside garden for relaxing, chilled

Best hostel I have ever stayed in. Really clean and comfortable. The bunk bed set up is brilliant - all feels very private and safe. It was quiet at night, I never had to queue for the showers and the lounge / dining and study rooms are excellent. It’s a short walk into town and right by a bus stop. Lots of nice places to eat and drink just minutes away.
