to get started.

Check in was great! Staff super friendly. Overall appearance was pretty cool. Quiet in the rooms.

Leslie, United States of America

One of the nicer looking hostels I've ever stayed at. Felt very secure and safe, which helps when you're traveling alone. Floors and rooms were accessible only by key card, security guard at the door, etc. Incredibly helpful staff as well. Nearby parking garage that housed my car overnight for roughly €8 euros, which felt fair.

Elizabeth, United States of America

The atmosphere and how clean it was. Also helped print my boarding pass and call a taxi for me

Patrick, United States of America

Very spacious rooms (had 8 beds in mine), locker in room and a bathroom for just the 8 of us with a shower. Such a cool place. Also 2 min walk from one of the best Irish pubs with live music every night (The Cobblestone). So fun!

Laura, United States of America

Breakfast was good, the place is always busy, which is great, but more staff to help deal with customers

Ian, Ireland

Comfy bed, great shower, cleanliness, location, good vibe.

Lori, United States of America

We had a common bathroom in the room with toilet, walk in shower and a sink. It looked really clean and was very inviting. The bedding was clean and tidy and I had a power outlet, a wall holder and a usb outlet to directly charge my phone. I enjoyed the breakfast they served, enjoyed the live music they had in the evening and the overall atmosphere. The staff was welcoming and the check-in and checkout process was fast and straight forward. I felt really good and I will surely stay there again when I'll be back.

Tony, Romania

The lobby with the bar and eating area is very big, clean and inviting. The staff was really friendly and addressed my every needs. The position is excellent, being close to pubs, restaurants, tram station and also the river. It has easy access and you don't spend time looking for it. The bedding was clean and tidy and I felt welcomed.

Anton, Romania

Everything else the staff where very professional and helpful.

There were a large number of kids on our floor who were loud and carrying on well into the night including screaming and constantly slamming doors. Staff should be monitoring floors on a regular basis.

The only and biggest thing I have to complain about is... it was too noisy in the MIDNIGHT!! Please, please if you staff can do something about it. There were more than one room, in which lived some stupid kids without knowing what is called manner and respect. They were having party in the rooms, talking, laughing, shouting, and screaming, which I believe non stopped until at least 2am.
The location is quite nice, very convenient to take the LUAS. The vibe there is young and energetic. Receptionist was super nice and helpful, and I also met some friendly lads, who helped me when the thing I bought got stuck in the vending machine.

Light in the room is not sufficient. No usb/eu plugs for charging phones. Breakfast was very average, much nicer options across the square. The iron in the laundry room was very old and did not work. The sink far too small. No shelves in bathroom to put toothpaste etc.
Comfortable beds. Atmosphere.

“A Very Young and Hip Place”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 8-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 1 night
It is a bit away from the city centre and is located in a very posh, high-priced area, Smithfield. Other guests may also be too young, immature, drunk, inconsiderate, loud and obnoxious. There was no common kitchen or TV lounge area. The constant loud music blasting could also be a bit annoying at times.
There is a different feel to the place because of the loud music constantly blasting in the lobby on the ground floor. It feels like being at a night club. The building is roomy and well-designed. It appears that younger travelers tend to be attracted to this place, so it has a very vibrant feel.

Breakfast was a little chaotic, staff not very friendly/helpful ( both days same gentlemen) 1st day breakfast ok but didn’t get our toast (menu says Irish breakfast comes with toast) 2nd day breakfast was cold and only two out of four of us got our toast, even though we asked for it! When it came it was cold and rubbery.
Good location, clean, great facilities, fantastic staff on reception & bar, great transport links. Had an issue with neighbouring rooms having a party, early hours. Mentioned it to reception staff and they resolved it immediately 😀

Awesome
- • Leisure trip

- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 1 night
Price for a single room was nice hotel room high but we stayed here because we had 5 teenage boys in a dorm room and the cost was inexpensive for them.
Check in was great! Staff super friendly. Overall appearance was pretty cool. Quiet in the rooms.
