I only like that I could have a ceiling .however, it was the cheapest hostel in the area but now I know why? I hope that I will never need to stay there in my life.the staff were so friendly but I bought a fresh bottle I spray every hour I could not sleep if you want to asked the Canadian girls poor us . 107 room .i have to opened the door while I was there and my friend and I .argue because she said how I can book in that place .i know where 12 people but I never expect the odour .

Location was great, walking distance from most tourist locations and very close to the bus stop that takes you to the airport. The hostel had a typical hostel feeling from around the world.

Katie, United States of America

Everything was perfect for myself and the rest of us. We come for a stag weekend away and could not have asked for a better accommodation to suit us all. Plugs on bunks were a great plus! The breakfast was very sufficient as well and staff are great! Hostel is open 24 hours so we could go out and return at any time which was great!

Ryan, United Kingdom

Staff really friendly and helpful. Only 15min away from the city center: so not far and in the same time quiet.

Justine, France

The staff are fabulous, the roof terrace, the cleanliness of the property especially bathrooms

What Travelers Love About This Location

“ensuite room for 3 people was perfect!, bathroom is new and was very clean!”

Veronica

Belgium

“Comfortable bed. Breakfast less crowded earlier in the morning. Hallway toilets and showers most convenient.”

United States of America

“Coffee was surprisingly excellent. Better than England, Northern Ireland and Wales combined. Keep up the good work! The locker system – able to leave a cash deposit in return for a key. Great for early arrivals and overnight trips. I arrived in the morning and checked in, got a locker and left my bags, just in time for the “free” walking tour pickup. Came back in the afternoon and got my room key and bag. Wish I could say I planned it that way :)”

Excellent

- • 1 Bed in a 12-Bed Mixed Dorm
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The only one slight negative thing was having to go through 3 doors with a key card before getting to the room which I understand is good for security but it never wanted to work first time so it can get rather annoying if needing to go back to the room few times in a short space of time.
눇Stayed for 1 night in 12 bed dorm, room is a decent size and beds are comfy enough. Each bed has a curtain on it which gives you a bit more privacy, the bathroom is within the room and has a good shower in it. There are locker cages underneath each bed but make sure you bring your own pad locker. Wifi had a strong connection during our stay. Jacobs Inn is in a really good location, just a 2 minute’s walk from Connolly Train Station and Busaras bus station. Just a few extra minute walk and you’re at the bus stop which offers direct route to and from the airport. Temple Bar and Croke Park are both within a 15 minute’s walk of the hostel. The hostel is clearly popular, especially with bigger groups of students which meant breakfast time was busy but eventually managed to find a table to sit at after a little wait. The breakfast consisted of your usual basic hostel offering, toast with jams/nutella, cereals, tinned fruits. Overall, we would recommend Jacob’s Inn and would return if we ever go to Dublin again, as its good value in what is an expensive city to stay in and visit!
