    The bunk beds are not really comfy as the top bunk is very low so the person below can't even sit up on their bed. Husband has smashed his head lots of times 🤣 The music & street noise is very loud (luckily I came prepared, so no real issue).

    Staff was very helpful and friendly. Check-in & check out was great - short and pleasant. Got all the information needed and the ladies (sorry, don't know their names) helped me when I've twisted my ancle. It was very clean and eventhoug the heating wasn't working there was a heater provided. Its location is really perfect for pub crawls and night life. We were really happy with our stay. Thank you.

    At night I was asleep, a group of people came into the room, they were drunk and they didn't care that we were all asleep and they were making a lot of noise and they wouldn't let me sleep.

    Because the place is very well located and the staff was very polite

    Breakfast is really poor regarding the total price. But indeed you pay for the location. Some additional local breakfast experience and a better coffee would had be best. The electrical heating shower is complicated to set the good temperature and having a poor water flow

    Location, Cleanliness, availability of USB sockets to load the batteries

    Saturday night since the street is very central with all the major pubs nearby it can get a bit loud but that’s something you expect

    Great stay in the heart of Temple bar !!
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Bed in 10-Bed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The pillows are really thin and quite uncofortable, but that's my personal appreciation, the small boxes to put away your belongings might need a bit of oil because they make a lot of noise. The thing I found a bit unhelpful is that all the electricity sockets in the room were located on side of the room, making setting up alarms early in the morning a bit inconvenient for everyone in the room.

    I have to say that I thought it was going to be a bit noisy as it is located next to Temple bar, but I was wrong, didn't hear noise, The room felt quite good and cozy. The staff (specially Jasmin) was really helpful at all times. My stay included breakfast but didn't take it as I left really early in the morning.

    I mostly booked this for convenient access to the airport bus in the morning. It served its purpose just fine. The bathroom was a bit dirty, and it was not clear how frequently that space is tended to.

    If I had to be picky, the shower could have been a bit better but that's about it. Not the most powerful and very hot.

    Rooms were so clean, location was perfect, staff very friendly and helpful and breakfast was really good.

    WiFi could be better. Room was on 4th floor and it barely barely worked. Could only use the WiFi from the breakfast room essentially.

    Good location, you can walk almost anywhere from it. Close to food shops.

    - The bes. For such a high price for accomodation invest in better beds with more privacy and space to place our devices. - The price, but everywhere in Dublin is like that. - The lockers are cages so small items could still be stolen. Installing lockers would be much better. I don't recommend placing valuable objects there.

    - Location, the place and area are amazing! - Friendly staff. - Breakfast included. - Close to Airport shuttle.

    The room itself was small but not much of an issue for four lads going Dublin for horse racing and pub drinking.

    Rooms were clean, bathroom was perfectly fine. Continental breakfast was decent with unlimited food available. Location in Temple Bar was 10/10 can't get closer to the action.

    I didn't like the breakfast, but maybe my expectations were too high. I also didn't like that there were some noises at night because of the wind hitting the windows, which, like I said to the stuff, need to be renovated, in my opinion.

    The staff was super nice and kind. The location is perfect for who want to spend just a couple of days in Dublin, close to all more important spots and very easy to reach. I would reccomend it
