    Beds were comfy and room was clean. Location is great and solid overall stay for the price. Staff was friendly and having breakfast included was nice.

    Only “complaint” is I wish there were more options for breakfast.

    7GenevievePosted on: 1-20-2026

    The room met expectations, and we loved having breakfast included. Staff was very helpful and the surrounding area is amazing of course.

    We had to rent towels, and the room could have been more clean.

    Wouldn’t recommend this place.

    Stunningly bad experience. If you are going to charge $110 per night for a dorm bed then you need to also elevate the experience you provide. This would have been fine if I’d paid €15 for a night but it you are going to charge luxury prices for cut rate dorm beds then expect many more one star reviews. Definitely skip this greedy rip off of a place.

    The breakfast bread was very good. All workers were very kind and helpful.

    The breakfast could offer a few more options.

    8AmberPosted on: 1-19-2026

    I liked the security and ability to store my things under the bed. Plenty of closet space for everyone to share and use individually as well.

    I wish they would have had another shower specifically for women that could have been accessed outside of the shared room. I have no problem sharing co-ed sleeping spaces and the restroom but shower facilities should be available outside of the rooms as well if possible. I also don’t like the the kitchen is inaccessible for people to congregate, cook, and eat in outside of their posted hours. Also, the tv’s in the common room didn’t work and the lights kept going out if we weren’t moving in the room so we constantly had to keep getting up for the lights to turn back on. They should either have a light timer that we can control or a basic on and off switch that doesn’t time out.

    It was a Hostel. If you’re looking for cheap night of sleep in the heart of Dublin, it’s a great option. The bed was cle

    Overall experience was good. Great place if you are just passing through. Even though I brought my own I thought it was nice that they provided ear plugs and eye masks. These are hostel essentials

    The cages under the bed where pretty loud.

    Very friendly and helpful staffFree breakfastGreat location in the middle of Temple bar

    The beds are not long enough for tall people

    10RékaPosted on: 11-16-2025

    The staff was always helpful - and smiling!!!The kitchen was well equipped.Room was nice.

    The commune area itself is nice but, I think there's no to little hostel community along the guests AND the lights there are with sensors.So if I stay down reading the lights will go out after a while... bit annoying.

    Great location and very friendly staff

    A bit noisy at night since windows opened to a courtyard but hey, it’s a party every night so I expected it.

    10willimPosted on: 10-19-2025

    Convenient to everything. Bars, restaurants, city sites and tours, easy to get around the city. Spacious rooms so that you aren't on top of everyone trying to get dressed or open your suitcase.

    They could use just a bit more variety for breakfast, but if you are only going to be staying a few days, then breakfast is good. I stayed twice within a 3 week period, so breakfast became a bit boring. I have a suggestion for a simple added amenity for the dorm rooms. Add hooks on the walls, so that towels, jackets coats can be hung up. There are small closets available, but it rains a lot in Dublin and you need to hang clothes etc to dry out quite often.
