    Great location. Met the expectations, nice kitchen, the facilities need a little lift up but it's acceptable with the price.

    It was strange that you had to make your own bed. All the other hostels that I’ve stayed at always had the doona cover on the doona etc. The other hostels I’ve stayed at were cheaper and provided a ready made bed.

    It had the cleanest kitchen I’ve ever seen in a hostel. There was never any food left in the sinks and having a spray bottle so you could clean up afterwards and the hooks to hang up the tea towels meant you could always find a tea towel!

    The location was perfect! We were in a 6 bed female dorm room and it was just what we needed. We didn't spend much time in the hostel itself apart for sleeping and the beds were comfortable, facilities were clean which was the most important for us 👍It's a good place for a decent price. I recommend it!

    The speed of the WiFi. But it’s not a big deal.

    I liked the fact we had a separate room and the location was so central to everything we wanted to do. I also love the fact that there’s kitchen facilities with free tea and coffee. The fact it is also 24hrs. The staff were so accommodating

    The communal showers/ toilets for my room (Ash) was very congested for 15 odd beds there. The showers/ toilets were too small. You could just barely stand in there. The ceiling was very low for 15 odd beds. Me being on the upper level bed could almost touch the ceiling while sitting on the bed (They cant do much now about it as it is how the rooms were constructed)

    I loved the stuff. They were very helpful, polite and understanding. The cleaning was spot on. The kitchen was clean and well equipped. The toilets and bathrooms were clean as well.

    pillows. no toast in morning but they are very minor issues. The hostel could do with an upgrade as there are many brand new hostels in the area and this is being left behind.

    Firstly, the staff are brilliant, helpful, and friendly. Pillows are a bit too thin, and even when doubled up, they are not thick enough. Showe rooms could be a bit bigger for us, more larger people but shower power and hot water are great and they are clean. wifi can be hit and miss or slow but a lot of people using at the same time can slow it up. Free coffee, tea and hot chocolate all day is a bonus but even some toast would not go amiss in the mornings. Location is great and very central to both Temple Bar, O'Connell and Grafton streets. so much to do and not enough time. 9 days maximum stay is understandable

    Single bathroom for 6 people to share. If someone is showering and blow drying their hair it can be as long as 20 minutes or more to wait to use the toilet. It would be great if there was another toilet and sink available for use. The sink could even be in the room so someone could brush teeth or wash face or blow dry hair enabling others to use the bathroom with shower.

    Staff very helpful and friendly along with the convenient location which is walkable to area attractions, shopping, Terrace Bar area, Dublin Express bus to airport ( 35 minute ride) and local public transportaion to include buses, trams and rail. They are also very dilligent with keeping security tight requiring guests to be buzzed in deterring people who are not guests to come on the premises.
