Pros +
- Everything, but mostly the people there are helpful and accommodating
- Great location
- A nice place to stay in Dublin, good location (there were near famous spots like temple bar, trinity college and Guinness storehouse).
Cons -
- Code sent to myself wouldn't let me in to check in
- To little place always need to confirm code to get in or you can not get in the room
- Avoid this hostel. It is not safe + it is not clean. We got belongings stolen from us, from within our pods and lockers, and management did NOTHING to help us. Bathrooms/toilets/common area = absolute mess. Price is not worth your safety and sanity.

Great location
Code sent to myself wouldn't let me in to check in
A nice place to stay in Dublin, good location (there were near famous spots like temple bar, trinity college and Guinness storehouse).
The bed Is the most confortable place quiet AND with privacy super clean place more for privacy stays
To little place always need to confirm code to get in or you can not get in the room
Pods really are as described, no sound isolation though and they don't lock properly. They do keep warm though, which is a huge plus in the wintery weather.

It’s warm, cheap, the location is very good
The boxes are plastic, straight from aliexpress. They placed so close to each other, despite the fact that there is space in the room to place them comfortably. Because they are so close to each other and made form thin plastic every move from other persons u can feel, and when they are,by accident, bumping into your capsule it shakes really bad and loud
Easy to find , great location, easy to check in to, very comfy pods with cool facilities and shower was amazing
In the cabin was enough for 2 people.Everything was clean and nice.For the price it was a good deal. Ideal for one or two nights.
Nothing, we checked out 2 days early.
The worst experience. Avoid! Tried to cancel accomodation due to the cleanliness, dirty towels. and the power charging issues, and was refused any assistance.
The property is just 20mins. walk from the city center. The staff was nice and everything is accessible. The price is even affordable. it is comfortable inside. Not crowded inside the room.
just the charging port but no big deal since you can just bring a powerbank ☺️
Good location and cheap butbnot good, only for a 2 or 3 days maximum
Few toilettes, bad cabins, old
Pods are kinda private.
Tap outside was broken and running all night. Bedding was dirty and not clean. Chargers in pods didnt work. I had to leave early, and they refused to refund me despite being vacant.
The staff was nice.The bathroom was clean
The snack area and the the space outside the capsule wasn’t so nice, a bit old
Review
Very poor hostel, no hot water, no blinds in the rooms, no charging points in the roomDon't recommend at all
The Hotel was good, but the stairs was dark no lamp.
That I didn't get the bed I was expecting. And didn't get change the and there was free beds.
The space pods were really cool, a unique experience, loved the mirror and the lights, air conditioning in the pod also
The toilets/shower rooms were absolutely freezing due to this we didn’t shower, broken floor tiles in the hall way, no sound proofing you can hear everything all through the property and in the other pods, the pods could of been alot cleaner and the beds wernt very comfortable
Enjoyed the privacy of a pod bed with the extra space of a double size matress
usb charging ports didn't work in the pod, had no way to charge my phone, no staff to ask for assistance at night.
No kitchen , reception no nice ! Definitely I not come back anymore , so expensive ! Bed
It is a good place if what you’re looking for is a bed and a shower, not much more. The pods give you more privacy than in a regular hostel, however you can still hear noise from outside.The whole place was cleaned very well every morning so you can tell they take care of cleanliness. If there’s a mess in the bathrooms by the end of the day, it’s the fault of other residents not respecting the common spaces.There are lockers in the room so even though the pods don’t lock, you can store your things safely overnight/when you’re away.
It was quite cold in the hostel, especially the ladies bathroom and the ‘common room’ downstairs. The window in our room had a crack in it and with 0 degree temperature outside it could get cold in the room but once you’re closed inside the pod, the space gets warmer.It would be nice if there were hangers in the rooms because we had to keep our winter jackets in the bed with us because they would have taken up the whole locker.
The location was good, close to the city center.
The bedsheets were full of hair like they weren’t changed before
