Not bad but not good
For a night it was fine but a bit run down, bare minimum and okay. For the area, it's good, but wouldn't want to stay for longer than a couple of days. The receptionists were kind.

Perfect location -noisy street
The hostel is centrally situated and perfect location for Trinity college, the river etc. The reception staff was particularly helpful and friendly. Useful lockers to leave bag until the evening before return to the airport. The place is clean and safe. My room was on a very busy and noisy street with all night traffic of tram, buses cars. I thoroughly recommend bringing ear plugs so as to be able to sleep.

This hostel was in a great location, nice and central and walking distance to a lot of sights, shops, bars and restaurants, as welp as the River Liffey. The hostel itself was safe, quiet and clean. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly.

I was in a mixed dorm room with three young men who snored all night and then started listening to a basketball game with the sound up at 6 am. Worst roommates ever!!

I stayed in the 18 person dorm room. It's a large space and didnt feel crowded. The showers were cramped and one didn't drain very well. There was a lack of hooks and shelves in both the bathroom and bedroom spaces. That's pretth common in most hostels. The kitchen is large and well equipped. Tea, coffee, and hot chocolate supplies are provided. The hostel is super convenient to find. It's literally 70 steps or less from the #16 bus stop. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. There are also lots of grocery stores, including SPAR and Tescos.

This was a great stay in a wonderful location. Easy to get to everything (Trinity College, shops/restaurants, the river, Temple Bar, bus tour meeting locations, etc.) They have lockers in the main lobby you can rent through a machine and the front desk person gave me change for a bill so I had coins to put in the machine - this was SO helpful as even after I checked out I was able to keep my stuff in the locker while walking around Dublin. I came back to get my bags before leaving for the airport. I stayed in a female 6 bed room and it was fine - one bathroom for 6 girls goes about as far as you'd expect - especially when they're getting ready for a night out. Make friends, lol! The bathroom floor got soaked everytime the shower was used and the bathroom is very tiny - I imagine a larger person might have trouble in there. My one qualm was that the website says they have nightly pub crawl tours and I asked the front desk about this, they said they don't do them. So that was disappointing. I went out to Temple Bar with a girl I'd met on a day trip that day instead, which was amazing, but if I hadn't met her I wouldn't have had evening plans anymore which sucked. I was hoping to make friends on the hostel's pub crawl. They need to update their site.

Great for young people
Never stayed at a hostel until this time. Thank goodness we had 3 people to get a private room & bathroom. The luggage hold room is not secure, people are in & out constantly. Highly suggest using the locked lockers that u have to pay for. Kitchen area is open freely which is nice. Otherwise all staff was super nice & helpful.

Good place for quick stop.
Excellent location with everything you need within walking distance. Staff were stellar and the room is what we needed for our night. If you're looking for a quick stop and just need a place to get your head down for the night, this is a perfect spot.

2 person room and parking
We stayed in a two person room and it was like having a hotel room with two twin beds. It was great location. The only complaint was the beds were not the best, not the worst though. The parking garage that was closest give a student rate if you go to the office. THe photo is the view from our room.

Great alternative for a short stay in the city
The bed was €26 including breakfast. staff was somewhat unfriendly, but I guess that comes with dealing with the masses. Very pleased with the price and the quality of the room. The beds even have USB and power plugs so you can charge your devices effortlessly. The breakfast was nice, too. All in all definitely recommendable and in an expensive city like Dublin, a great alternative to spend the night.
