It was a great price, good location, but the service was ok. Probably choose somewhere else the next time I go to Dublin.

Mediocre

All shops around. Close to restaurant,  food shop,  especially chinese restaurant. Tsansportation with buses,  Luas and Irish rail within 5 -10 minutes walk. Only problem with hot water flow very very slow,  not good for shower.

Right at city centre. Convenience with all shops

Lovely place. Only problem: the wifi signal was too weak in my room.

The location was excellent, it's close to the city centre, lots of shops and some supermarkets like Tesco, which was very convenient to me! Staff are very helpful and kind of them! I was staying on the ground floor and my room was a bit hot, so I slept with the window wide open but I didn't feel insecure at all!

Helpful Staff and Excellent Location

Firstly, the staff at the hostel were super friendly and accommodating.  We got a very early flight to Dublin and were worried about having to carry our luggge around however we arrived at the hostel in the hope that they would hold our bags for us. Despite waking the staff member up he was more than happy to do this at no extra charge. We also left our bags here after we checked out so we could continue exploring and the staff had no issue with this either and even stored them in their private office. Throughout our stay we were very welcomed. The pictures that we saw prior to arriving at the hostel were very deceiving. The building is in need of a big refurbishment. At present it looks/is grubby and could do with freshening. Having said that, it is a cheaply priced hostel so you get what you pay for. We explained to the staff member present that the room we were given was not at all like the room we had seen in the pictures, he kindly offered to swap our rooms however after looking at the other rooms we decided to keep the one we had. We went as a couple and had a room with 4 available sleeping places so there was plenty of space for us. Although there is no en suite there was a sink in the bedroom. The bathroom was next to our room however as we shared this with our neighbours it was a little awkward as we could hear every sound in there. The shower wasnt as clean as I had hoped but it was nice and hot so did the job.
The location of the hostel was in a perfect location for us, it was only a short bus journey from the airport. We were able to make our way to the major places of interest by foot from the hostel which saved travel expenses.
If you only need the hostel as a place to sleep and aren't fussed about anything else then it will do the job. If not then get your wallet out, pay extra and find somewhere else.

Budget hostel 

It's very central location, though sketchy enough late at night.. like any major city Dublin despite its relaxed vibe has a drug problem and to be aware of your soroundings is important.. Take common sense care and you should enjoy your visit. I stayed for one night in a small single room ,with a sink in the room .. bed was comfortable , staff are very friendly, and despite that morning no hot water in shower. Dublin is now very expensive to visit and with some extra effort in maintenance especially in plumbing area this place could be so much better. Owner do this upgrade and give your excellent staff the chance to run what could be a so much better Hotel ..

Central location , Airport Bus stops nearby.

Not very clean   Long black hair in the sink. Mattress was strained and no matteres protecter on bed just a sheet over that uck strained mattress shower up on lever two was sooooo small and hot water was almost non existent

Uck but good allocation

Stayed in a single room for 3 nights. The staff was really friendly and was very helpful. The room was small but cosy, all I needed for my puposes. The location near O'Connell Street was fantastic!Only downside was the shower where the waterbeam was very weak.
