Affordable, suitable, but not that great

Nice room but it felt a little bit crammed. Common areas are not very cozy but quite clean though. Pictures should be updated because there is a Starbucks instead of the big entry.

A very clean, complete and very good location hostel.

It is a hostel, which at first, seems to be a little further from the center, but it is in a very good location and near a very busy street and you can find everything. It is a very clean hostel, good facilities and the staff is very nice and willing, they give you all the directions you need and help you. The only thing in the rooms where there are more beds to share, there are very few sockets, quite the opposite in the kitchen, where you find it very easy to charge all the devices. And since they take advantage of all the space to put beds and have more people, there are no lockers to store the most valuable items or money. There are cages or lockers next to reception that cost 2 per day to have.

Nice hostel and well located in Dublin

The staff at the hostel is friendly, help in case of problems. The kitchen is well equipped and tidy. Common areas include billiards, Netflix room, ping-pong and board games. The rooms are quite small and some problems of cleanliness (chewing gum on the ceiling). Also there is a green illuminated sign at the top of the door that is lit 24H / 24, not great at night. Otherwise the location is very good, close to the center and Temple Bar.

Booking with surprises!

When I made my reservation, I made the composition of the family of 9 people (6 adults 2 teenagers of 17 years old and one of 12 years old) and we had a dormitory of 10 beds At our arrival a hostess not too friendly tells us we can not accommodate another person in our room considering the age of the children which was not expected when I booked So she made me pay an extra 2 nights for the unoccupied bed either 40 € is this normal?

Youth hostel to flee

For having spent 4 nights in this hostel, I do not recommend it. Rooms of 12 small with Spartan comfort, very bad soundproofing (get ready to hear techno all night even with earplugs), and the hotel staff is as cold as a fridge. Only positive point the location 2 steps from the city center So yes it's cheap but it's already too expensive for what it is.

Okay, the staff that attends you excellent. the windows are very old and it gets cold and a lot of noise from the street when there is a party, but they have great quilts and they give a lot of heat.

In general very good!

Horrible! I strongly discourage this hostel. We stayed for 3 nights. The breakfast is very basic and the food is too small compared to the world. At meals, we were on top of each other, hard

A horrible hostel that makes you want to shorten your stay.

Disappointed after 3 other hostels tested outside of Dublin. The floor of the rooms was dirty, the bins of the toilets overflowing, luckily the sheets were clean. The place of the breakfast nice but the kitchen did not envy by the

We stayed in a private quad with a private bathroom, and while the room was rather small, it did what it said on the tin. The hostel's location is idea for getting to and from the airport (bus stops outside - no16 bus), it's a short walk to Temple Bar etc, and you've got access to Wexford Street and Camden Street, which boast some cheap eats and bars.

Avalon House was very clean and comfortable. The unisex washrooms were nice and had plenty of showers. The room I stayed in was nice, offering comfortable beds. I was lucky to have been in a quiet room, so I had a nice stay. Breakfast is included, though it is limited to cereal and toasts. As far as hostels go, Avalon is pretty plain, but it has a great location near Temple Bar and St Stephen Green.

The location is good, it's in walking distance to all attractions, nightlife, shopping and the bus to the airport stops right outside. The hostel does free walking tours around Dublin and they have a pub crawl which would be good for people looking to meet others. There are nice common areas and a coffee shop within the building. There is free breakfast (though I missed this!)

I've spent a good moment, meet people coming from everywhere in the world, ideal for holidays, nevertheless there is too much light in the corridor which could prevent you to sleep well (it depends on the dorms ) and it was a little cold in the bathrooms

Perfect! Very friendly, nice staff, I recommended !

Aesthetic, functional and well placed, the Avalon hostel is a good plan for young and old people eager to discover the warm atmosphere of Dublin evenings. On the other hand, it's a bit noisy at night.
