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.
Unfortunately, restaurant was close We missed a shared kitchen
Hostel with different services ideally located in Dublin. Very clean and friendly staff.
In a room of 6, it lacks a bench or stools, or even a table, as well as shelves, and towel doors in the bathroom. Lack of written information in the dining room for breakfast.
The focus was on the design of the lobby and bar. the wifi is of good quality. Very good. The rest is disappointing: unfriendly staff, loud music constantly in the lobby (to make young and trendy probably), noisy hostel (1 window of the room overlooked a patio occupied by people from the bar until late at night) , no hook in the room (where do we hang his clothes), locker under the bed for his business very difficult to access because the bed was in an angle, etc ... I recommend only for those who want to do the party !
