Clean but noisy

The rooms are very clean with very good bedding, but our room was placed between two bathrooms and above the parking gate, so very noisy.

Great experience!!

The structure is very convenient in the center, the environment is clean and the staff are very helpful and friendly. I recommend everyone to stay at this property. There's a nice atmosphere, it's easy to make friends with the other kids in the hostel and I've noticed a lot of respect for the common spaces. The only small flaw: one night a boy played and sang loudly near the stairs until 1 P.M, preventing me from sleeping.

Fantastic
Everything was fine during my stay.

The welcome was more than friendly and accommodating. The hostel has an elevator, the common areas are always very well maintained and the lounge very comfortable. The area is very quiet and although out of the way, close to the beating heart of Dublin.
