Social and fun

High ceilings, exposed brick and a grand mural make this a popular haunt with locals and travellers alike.

There’s a shop for all your travel needs, a cinema room where you can meet others and unwind.

The hostel’s popular breakfast menu has some real gems; make sure you try the burger – it’s been voted one of the best in Dublin.

An experience that is not up to par.

We booked a 6-person room. No privacy, no cleanliness, everything is chargeable and there is no kitchen available for a hostel.

Satisfying

There is what you need and for all tastes, only for my part the experience was biased by a change of room not accepted (due to an unbearable roommate), and the rooms were overheated... Otherwise everything is fine.

10.0 Fantastic
Very good experience

Good welcome, staff available and accommodating. Special mention to the night watchman, very warm. Clean dorms and comfortable beds. Noise level at a minimum, whether it is noise from the street, and from the corridors. Impeccable toilets. Small flat for the hair dryer in the female collective sanitary facilities which did not work. Full and inexpensive breakfast, but you have to come early. Fair prices in general. Small grocery store nearby. Very well located, slightly outside the center, in a renovated and pleasant area. Luas Red Line (tramway) a stone's throw away to quickly reach the center, otherwise 20 min on foot max. Also close to Heuston Station, to catch a South Westbound train. We highly recommend.
