Jacob’s Inn is clean and homey. The staff were soooo friendly and helpful. I didn’t have a pillow in my bed when I climbed in, so I shot an email to the staff and they appeared instantly with one. I was so shocked and felt very well taken care of!

“Overall, would highly recommend”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 2 nights
My only criticism would be the breakfast times (starts at 7.30 and only runs till 9.30, even at weekends).
The hostel building itself, which has been recently refurbished, is lovely - very clean, well fitted-out with pods in dorms which each have their own shelf, socket, light and curtain, as well as each having a locker in the room (which is accessed by a code so you don't need to bring your own lock). The staff were also very friendly and helpful. I had to check-out early and the receptionist told me that if for some reason I ended up not having to leave Dublin early after all, I could come back and stay for the rest of my stay as if I hadn't checked out, which I actually ended up doing. The location is also very handy for transport links. It's just beside Connolly railway station and Busáras bus station, as well as the Luas (tram) red line and the 747 Airlink bus. It's also about a 5 minute walk to the Luas green line and a little more to O'Connell street.

The only thing that my friends and I didn't like was the shower because you cannot let the water out without pushing every 20 seconds a button. Moreover the water was tepid, not even warm! This is such a shame for such a nice hostel
The location was fantastic we never took the tram or other public transport because the hostel was near everything. The staff was super friendly and ready to help us with everything we need. The room was quite good with a large bathroom and enough space to make feel 4 people comfortable
