Very clean , modern and comfortable ! Affordable and in a great location. Save some €. Just walk places! Americans:get a map because they don't use a grid street system we are used to & u may get lost.

Better than most of the "Hotels " I've ever been to.doesn't deserve being called Hostel????clean rooms, great staff , comfortable beds , nice breakfast , good tours ! Really recommendable???? wifi !!????

Ben Nesbitt

Nice bar on ground floor, good vibe inside. Drinks deals all the time. Good spot to kill a few hours over drinks with friends. Close to Luas too. Quite rough outside so keep your wits about you.

Gustavo Tontini

One of my favorite places in Dublin. People from everywhere, several different events and it's open to the public! Amazing place even if you're not staying there!

Rachel West

Great hostel for reasonable prices. Just a short walk to Temple Bar . Get the breakfast - just €4 for something filling and tasty! Definite pick for traveling students.

Rick Groot

Great place, good beds, good rooms, wi-fi in the lobby (and therefor even on second floor), not to far from city central, tip: by a bus ticket for the entire week if your staying that long^^

Cian Mac Mahon

This place, despite being a hostel , has an incredible burger . One of the best in Dublin. Good beer selection too!

Christopher Sullivan

Fantastic hostel , great rooms, the best internet WiFi connection I've had at a hostel . Its in a great location, nice warm inviting environment.

Sanju Boshi

The rooms are very functional. There are safe and so large lockers , the bathroom is private, there is a pillow in the bed. You can eat at the cafeteria . The only negative point is the loud music !

Luis Assandri

The bar is very nice. The rooms clean .. The price cheap ... Just to say something negative.. You must make your bed.. They just put clean bed clothes over the bed.

Alice

Bring a padlock for the lockers under the bunk beds and flip flops for the shower . You have to use your keycard for the lift. Beds have two plug sockets (three pin) each.

Marc C.

Good price for the location and better-than-average accommodations. You may have to take the lift to use the bathroom , depending on the room you get, which can be annoying.

Joak

Best hostel in Dublin , although it became more like a hotel , no kitchen and expensive services, ed price is ok and facilities and staff are great.

Shannon Spaniol

Not all of the rooms have private bathrooms . The men have one on the 2nd floor for those of you guys staying on the 1st floor at least. Bring a padlock for the locker under your bed.

Carolina López

Great hostel !!! I just miss a comum kitchen... And u must book the breakfast in advanced, don't forget it

Chris Ho

Good comfy place; 20 walk to town or if you have some spare cash, you can opt to take LUAS tram

Loved everything about this place except the staff (unfriendly and rude, even the bartenders ). Private rooms were fabulous

Cian Mac Mahon

I've never stayed here, but the bar and food is about as good as hostels get!

Brian Boelt

Great hostel with common areas for everyone

Melissa Lüdeman

Good prices, clean rooms . I liked a lot the lounge . The kitchen could be available to everyone.

Shannon Spaniol

Breakfast isn't great besides the yummy but cold soda bread . Go to the coffee shop across the way for a better breakfast (but not as free.)

Shane

Free drink at the bar upon check in. Drinks cost much less here than area bars ... You may end up in a coed room

Blondie

Clean , new hostel . Better then some of the hotels I've been to...
