„What a delight! I've never stayed in a hostel which was only 5 days old, and as a result everything was spotless, in full working order, and absolutely perfect. The splendid Italian manager and his charming staff had clearly worked for many hours and weeks to get everything ready, and it showed. So many little details had been carefully thought out, down to a boiling water machine rather than a kettle in the spacious and very well stocked kitchen. There were 2 cookers, 3 fridges, 2 microwaves and plenty of good IKEA crockery and cutlery. The kitchen and lounge are in the penthouse, giving excellent views over Dublin and the hills. Bunk beds were soft and comfortable, and very cleverly the 8 bed dorm was actually 2 interleading rooms of 4 beds, so it felt more private.
Each dorm and communal room has its own WIFI router and code (all free and very fast) which you don't often see.
There was only 1 shower room for each gender on my floor so there was a bit of queuing involved, but the bathrooms were spotless. Hot water was plentiful, hot and at good pressure. They've installed those large round shower heads which are so much better than the silly hose affairs. And they're at a good height for me at 6'4"!
The hostel is in the Liberties area - a down to earth working class neighbourhood, but very safe and easy to reach from the city centre either on foot or by several buses - 40, 13 and 123. It was refreshing to stay somewhere not completely touristy and false.
This was really a top class stay, and I hope very that the hostel succeeds and does well. The enthusiasm and hard work of the staff deserve to do well.
Thank you so much.”
