I have been trying to think of some pros for my experience at this hostel, but nothing comes to mind. Location is not very good- it's not as close to the center of the city as advertised and the neighborhood does not feel safe at all at night, especially for a woman walking around alone. Not very clean at all,... More

Good economic choice in Dublin. Self-catered. Extremly clean. Common spaces confortable. Rooms spartans. Ideal for couples or groups who dont to spend a lot. No far away feom city centre (10 min walks to oconell street)

I am finishing up on a 6 night stay today and must say I am not impressed with the experience I had. This was not completely the fault of the hostel as there were a few really helpful staff members. First off, it is not in the best location - a bit out of the city and found that I... More

We arrived at night and had trouble finding hostel as it was in fact not a 4 minute walk from the city center. Felt very unsafe walking in areas of a big city we were unfamiliar with. Staff struggled with English. Had we not been so tired from a day of hiking in Wicklow, we might have made more of... More

I stayed in this hostel with a group of friends while driving round Ireland. Great location from which you can explore Dublin on foot. We appreciated free parking at the back of the hotel. Rooms are simple but clean, no fuss breakfast. Next time I am in Dublin I will use this hostel again and spend the money I save... More

I stayed in this hostel over New Year's and had a very good experience. Although it was clearly very busy, the staff were really helpful and friendly and willing to answer any questions that we had about trips and tours. I travelled with two friends and we had an enormous six-bed room to ourselves with three sinks. The rooms and... More

The rooms were basic but ok. This was a classic hostel standard. Some male showers had really weak stream, but female showers were ok. The breakfast room was really nice. Very international staff. The whole place was surprisingly warm and heated.
