I stayed in this hostel at the beginning of June and I really enjoy staying there. The location is so good because it is close to the O' Connell Street, the Trinity College, the Temple Bar and so on. The living condition is quite comfort. It is clean and well facilitated. The staff there are kind and friendly. Highly recommend... More

Came here for my birthday with a friend and when we eventually found the place (quite hidden away) I was happy with it. The place was very clean and all the people that we met were lovely. There are staff on at the reception 24 hours to ensure that you are safe but also if there are any problems. This... More

The place was clean and seemed safe enough, though walking down the alley it's on at night is a bit daunting. Some of the staff weren't hugely friendly, and the building, while it has some nice features (like the windows), is a bit grotty and oldish. It could be lovely with a bit more enthusiasm.

If you're just looking for a cheap place to stay within walking distance of everything worth seeing in Dublin, this place will suit you well. If you're looking for any amount measure of comfort or pleasantries, you will be sorely disappointed. The hostel is located just across an alley from a popular local pub featuring live music and many drunk... More

This was a great hostel to stay in. The staff was very friendly and willing to help you out however they could. The rooms were nicely laid out and very clean. You could rent towels if you didn't bring one. Only complaint was that the beds were not comfortable, and the pillows were as thin as kleenex. However, we felt... More

I loved this hostel. The staff is friendly, facilities are clean, beds are comfortable, the shower is great, it's in a good location and has many facilities and breakfast for a very cheap price. Also, the Free Irish dancing lessons that the offer on Friday nights are really fun and the teacher is very very talented! The only thing I... More

This was our first experience staying in a backpackers hostel abroad and we were pleasantly surprised. We stayed in a 4 bed en suite room as our party consisted of my partner, myself and 2 children aged 10 and 18 years. The staff were friendly, the hostel and rooms clean and price was the cheapest I found online. The beds... More

This was one of the cleanest and most well-kept hostels I've ever had the pleasure of staying in. They had someone at their front desk 24/7 (quite comforting). It is in a very nice, convenient location in the center of Dublin. Most of Dublin is within relatively close walking distance.

Strong points: the extremely helpful staff, its very central location, big and clean rooms. Excellent quality-price! No complain, unless you go there expecting to find a spa?! Great for groups of friends, but I would not recommend it to families.

There's even live irish music bar next door. Room looks clean. That's the good point. The bad points; the staffs doesn't really ensure that the noise level are kept... More
