This was one of the cleanest and most well-kept hostels I've ever had the pleasure of staying in. They had someone at their front desk 24/7 (quite comforting). It is in a very nice, convenient location in the center of Dublin. Most of Dublin is within relatively close walking distance.

Strong points: the extremely helpful staff, its very central location, big and clean rooms. Excellent quality-price! No complain, unless you go there expecting to find a spa?! Great for groups of friends, but I would not recommend it to families.

I stayed at this hostel for 3 days and was tired throughout my stay here. Location is great, the staffs are friendly and its near to all the place of attraction. There's even live irish music bar next door. Room looks clean. That's the good point. The bad points; the staffs doesn't really ensure that the noise level are kept... More

Me and three friends stayed here in November 2012 and were attracted to it by its great location, good enough price and good reviews. Unfortunately it really didn't live up to that.

In a nutshell, it works (clean, spacey, fun/ friendly and helpful staff) They also have a lot of very cool activities for people staying there, I don't think they have single rooms, but sharing with strangers was like a solo traveller cos everybody was always out. It's also quite central.

Very centrally located. 2-10 mins walk to major tourist attractions. Staff were helpful and friendly. Free events almost every night including free dinner Wednesday, free booze Thursday and free Irish dance class another night. Stayed in their 4-bed mixed dorm room when traveling with two other friends. Clean room. Bunk bed might be a bit low but that's no problem... More

Excellent location, discounted parking, WIFI, friendly staff, very clean bedroom and ensuite (amazing shower!), spacious lounge and kitchen area. In the hub of it all. Great 3euro breakfast option. Had a free Irish dancing lesson too!

The hostel is conveniently located at the center of the city where most of the touristy spots are, and is what 3 friends traveling on a budget was looking for. It was close to bars and restaurants. The staff tried to be as friendly as possible and helped us get to certain areas conveniently. Rooms: We stayed in a shared... More

I've been a great stay in this hostel. The shared female rooms is good, the beds is ok and the ensuite bathroom is excellent. Linens are clean. The central heating works perfectly and the bedroom is cozy. And every night there is meeting at 8 o'clock, wine and cheese, or free dinner.. It's amazing for meet new friends!
