Washrooms in dorm were very clean. Bunk beds had 2 charging points and reading lights. Lockers available too. Very lively pub downstairs. Plays live music on few days of the week. Security wise very good as well.
IrelandEverything! It was perfect! And I couldn’t believe how affordable it was, especially for how great of a property it is! I stayed two nights, but the second night was a separate reservation, so I’ll just reiterate what I said in my first review. The staff is top notch, housekeepers (work their butt off), security at the door, the bartenders and servers in the cafe/bar, and especially the front desk - Danielle was particularly lovely. With all of this, it sure set a high bar for the rest of my journey around Ireland! 10/10 highly recommend!!!
United States of AmericaEverything. Very clean. Lots to do. Good facilities. Nice location. Quiet area, but close to much. Danielle at the front desk is such a lovely person! She was so helpful, kind & caring! Definitely an amazing first impression of Ireland.
United States of AmericaIt's good for solo travels. About 20 min walking to the city center.
IsraelStaff and bar was nice good location right next to the jamason distillery
GermanyExcellent place to stay! Value for money at its best.
United KingdomIt is really close to most of the attractions all in walking distance but there is also a tramway stop near. Staff was really helpful and place was really clean.
TurkeyThe hotel is in a great location with several good restaurants across the road. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable.
United KingdomEvery floor in Generator has a unique benefits that will attract you to keep coming to stay. I love the 2nd, 3rd and mostly the ground floor. Beautiful set up. Clean apartments
