The overall property was nice, my bunk bed was sadly pretty dirty tho. The sheets/pillow/mattress was fine but the walls and the ceiling in my bunk was covered in mucus which was pretty disgusting. The shower also had mold. Other than that everything was fine. The hostel was right in the city center and there were great food options all around.

Excellent choice for cost and to be near the Dublin city area. Everything seemed walking distance. A must to enjoy time at the Temple Bar, Hard Rock, got to St Patricks Church etc. All walking distance. Excellent atmosphere. Laundry payment system maybe should be easier for those not phone sophisticated. Other than that, great. Not a place to sit in the room 24 hrs and watch tv.

Basic and sufficient. I had a private room with twin beds and my own bathroom and shower. Everything was small and efficient. The biggest disadvantage was that laundry requires an app which intern requires access to text messages. I left with dirty laundry.
Twin bed. Closet with shelves. Desk area with stool.
Private small bathroom with shower. Two towels included. Mirror and dressing table too.
Window that opens.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Conveniently located, clean, and secure. The only reasons I didn't put it at 5 stars is because: 1. When I asked for a lower bunk (older folk tend to not do as well with upper bunks), they tried to charge me extra for it, even though there was an open lower bunk in the room. 2. The lockers provided didn't have self-locks. Do they really expect people to bring their own? Those were my only nits, everything else was fine.

Decent

The hostel itself was nice. Nice lobby, bathroom, and rooms. Staff were friendly. Walking distance to a lot of places. The sheets for the bed were rough and stained some. The biggest downside was the area. Didn't seem like a great area, safety wise.

Everything you need in a hostel!..

Grabbed two nights here and stayed in a room of four. Room contained one room with sink and toilet. Another room with shower and toilet. Towels and padlocks for lockers are charged seperately. Great staff. Temple Bar is a five minute walk away. Tram-line right outside the front door. Hop-on buses one street over. Great location. Hostel contained all walks of live, old and young, even families, as it was a very busy weekend in Dublin. Would definitely stay here again.

The location itself was good. Right in the middle of everything. It was a roughly 15mins walk to the main airport bus station and 20mins walk to Trinity college. I have booked a 6 people room which our room has an accessible ensuite. It was massive but could do with a few shelves fitted in the toilet for storage. You need your room card to enter to the building after certain time which is good for security. You will need the card to access the basement which is where the storage room and more toilets are. It was a slight inconvenience when you have checked out and get your stuff although the staff will give you a visitor card to get around.
