    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.

    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

    8MichaelPosted on: 1-2-2026

    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.

    1SleckiePosted on: 1-2-2026

    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.

    10NicodemusPosted on: 12-21-2025

    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 ☺️

    4GustavoPosted on: 12-14-2025

    Good location and cheap butbnot good, only for a 2 or 3 days maximum

    Few toilettes, bad cabins, old

    1LouisPosted on: 12-10-2025

    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.

    5SantosPosted on: 12-10-2025

    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

    3SaiidPosted on: 12-6-2025

    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.

    6BeckyPosted on: 12-5-2025

    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

    7AlicePosted on: 11-24-2025

    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.

    2ItaloPosted on: 11-23-2025

    No kitchen , reception no nice ! Definitely I not come back anymore , so expensive ! Bed

    7NataliaPosted on: 11-21-2025

    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
