    Almost too popular
    The hostel itself was alright, but the guest that kept everyone up by snoring very loud all night, which I know he can’t really control, but he also left at 4:30 am by being VERY loud, then came in and out about five more times unlit 7 am turning lights on without turning them…

    All you need
    Stayed here for two nights. As everyone has said the location is great. Easy to find when you arrive and centrally located for major sites and transport. I stayed in a shared bunkroom. I was really warm at night. The shower in my room was fantastic- always a bonus! Breakfast…

    Great location
    The location of the hostel is great and the staff is ok. You have lockers where you can keep your luggage after you check-out of the hostel. I would recommend going there, even for solo travelers. Breakfast is included and it was really nice and you have access to the kitchen…

    Perfect location
    Stayed here for three nights in an all-female ensuite - lots of chargers and plugs above beds, even a little shelf for phones and such. - rooms and bathroom seemed clean. The rooms were a little bit cramped, but otherwise fine - nice kitchen and huge area by reception with…

    Nice hostel
    Great location if you are getting the Aircoach from the airport late at night. The bus will drop you off within a 5 minute walk (just after O’Connell Bridge)which is very handy. I didn’t use any of the facilities, I just needed a place to sleep for the night. Breakfast was…

    I didn’t see any kids there during my stay. My sister and I were only there to sleep and shower so that was all good. I am sure you will be fine. The rooms are secure. Most people just get around doing there own business. Ring the hostel. I would think the smaller private rooms would all be on the same floor and in the same area.

    Hi, Yes it's still the same. Towels are €1 to rent from reception and if you're staying in a private room, then towels are provided in the room. Regards.

    Do they have a stove top and cooking utensils and can one keep their own basic veggie food in the fridge?. Im vegan and find it very hard to eat in Europe so if I did a bit of groceries I could make my own food like a soup or ramen noodles? any pointers would be welcome. Thanks.
    Hi Maria, Yes we have a fully equipped kitchen for guests to use and a guest fridge where you can store your own food (just ask at reception for labels for your food). We also have two medium sized supermarkets just beside the hostel so hopefully they'll have everything you need. Hope this helps!

    "6 bed dorms are not too busy"
    "city centre location hallpenny bridge left, o'connel right, one side is not having view on city so if you need one to njoy hours there"
    "Choose a room facing the back for quieter night."
    "Make sure to check in early so you can get the beds near the window."
    "Maybe quieter at the back of the building as the front is on the main route through Dublin City Centre."
