The staff were very helpful and friendly, the facilities were very very good. The lockers had very very small locks that were very easy to pick, I did it with just a hair pin. Unfortunately you could not use your own lock. Maybe they could invest in some better locks. The other guests were quite noisy in the rooms after 10pm but apart from more signs..i dunno how to solve that better.

Much more than expected. Though minimilist, the ensuite room for four was large, clean and comfortable. Cozy quilts, warm heater, flat screen tv, large bathroom with hot water. Breakfast was humble, but there was lots of it... Cereal and toast, butter, jelly, juices, coffee, tea. Filtered water was provided to refill drinking bottles. The staff was fun and very helpful. Great value for the money!

It was really surprising how clean and comfortable the room was. It had everything that we needed. The breakfast was good too. The staff were friendly. We were only there for 2 nights to quickly see the city however if we had been backpacking we would have thought this was a fabulous introduction to Ireland and a great place to meet people and have fun.

Perfect hostel. Proper rooms. Nice and clean facilities. Kind staf. It's a 10 minute walk to the center of Dublin, so perfect location for us. If you don't want to walk you can take the tram which stops in front of the hostel or a taxi (€ 12). There is a pub next to the hostel and a very good Thai restaurant in front of it. In the room price is a free walking tour included. This is a very well organised tour with good guides. In 4 hours they show you the most important sightseeings in Dublin. If I go back to Dublin I would definitely book this hostel again! Breakfast is very simple, although what can you expect for a price like this?

I loved how clean it was for the value especially since its a hostel. It is the nicest hostel I have ever seen. The only thing we were lacking was an air conditioner but luckily it was cool outside so leaving the windows open at night was helpful.

Great location both for visiting the city center and for the stop of the bus for the airport. I expected it to be louder, but it proved even quieter than most hotels I was in.

The best things about Jacobs Inn Hostel are its personnel and international atmosphere. During the nights it was too loud: I could hear people talk in the other rooms and in the street.

the room was quite confortable and clean, as well the bathroom, very close to the bus station and to Connolly so I would advice it if you need to use the bus or the train.. not so close to temple bar and the area with the nightplaces, it was difficult to sleep until late because the curtains couldn't avoid that the light filter through in the room also in the early morning...

I really liked that members of jacobs wereinvited to other hostels for bbq's and other events. It was also nice being able to just sit back in the lounge and watch a movie with fellow backpackers. The front desk staff was also very nice and axcomidating....definitely recommend it to anyone. Not enough electrical outlets in rooms, pillows are very thin

The possibility to lock your luggage, the kitchen where we could cook our own dinner, the lounge for relaxing, the breakfast was fine, the beds were comfortable and sheets were clean, the location was fine (everything walking distance), a lot of safety doors (so its very safe place) some stoves didnt work well in the kitchen, we cooked pasta for 2 hours.

Ho soggiornato a dicembre 2011 in una stanza con due letti a castello. La camera è abbastanza spaziosa. Le lenzuola e le salviette fornite dall'albergo pulite. Bel bagno spazioso. Il wi fi è solo nell'area comune al piano terra. Colazione nella media, non irish breakfast. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Il wi fi è solo nell'area comune al piano terra. Il collegamento ai pc in comune è a pagamento.

Ottimo rapp qualità prezzo, abbiamo preso una quadrupla. Bisogna portare con se gli asciugamani oppure li prendete a 2 euro alla reception. AbbastanZa silenzioso anche se ricco di giovani. Ottima posizione, a 10 minuti da temple bar Colazione un po povera

Het Hostel is heel goed gelegen. Minder dan 10 minuten van het centrum dus geen last van uitgaande mensen. Alleen de dart hoor je soms. Heel vriendelijk personeel. Ontbijt beperkt, maar meer heeft een mens niet nodig om de dag te starten. Het is er netjes, heel gezellig. Een goede uitvalsbasis om Dublin te verkennen. Aanrader eerste klas.

Líbila se mi cena (také to, že v ceně byla zahrnuta snídaně), lokace, čistota, celkově pokoj místo double bed byla pouze "jeden a pul" postel s jednou peřinou
