Comments: Cheap and good location. But uninterested personel, not a very social ambiance. The rooms and bathroom pretty shabby. No chairs in the rooms.

Comments: Everything was good. The only issue was that it was in a shady part of town, but it was close to the main street.

Comments: Location is great and prices are alright for Dublin standards, but the twin room we stayed in was rather bare. There wasn't even a bin, the shower flooded the bathroom and the curtains didn't do anything to block light. Staff was very friendly however.

Comments: Managment and Client Service is on no EU level. No client service at all. Breaking basic moral and ethical rules. Leting others people to Your room while you absent. Going through your personal belongings, mess with booking. Irresponsible, managment is no problem solving at all. NO CLIENT SERVICE, DO NOT GO THERE or AT YOUR OWN RISK. They have their own differen pricec then those on the net, they have their own bookings. For this price You can have MUCH better.

Comments: Maybe needed some extra blankets for those who felt the cold. The heaters put out little to no heat, and the hot water wasn't always available in the showers. Other than that it was a great hostel.

Comments: Staff- not good for directions. Bathrooms- water temperature was a gamble, because it would either be freezing cold, no water pressure, or nice and hot. They were not gross. Breakfast was decent, and our rooms were clean and quiet. The hostel is on a nice quiet side street in a very central location.

Comments: there were no lockers available which was a shame, but everyone was pretty friendly so we didnt worry about leaving stuff in the room. the free breakfast (though basic) was very much appreciated. communal room should be left open all night. good location, friendly staff and great price. Thank you!!

Comments: One word: SKETCHY! The hostel was dirty, dark, had no hot water, and had really thin walls. I couldn't sleep because of all the noise from the room next door and because I was so cold. I didn't bother to shower because the water was ice cold and required one to hold a button down the whole time in order to keep the water flowing. If that weren't enough, the bathroom as a whole was filthy. Do NOT stay here.

Comments: showers were disgusting, no security (no one checked our passports when we checked in, no one checked who we were when we came "home" in the middle of the night after partying), the staff was pretty rude, the key-cards didn't work. The location was good though, and the room was OK, because it was so big. Missed a mirror in the room though. Also, it was pretty cold.

Comments: The room looked like an orphanage, our door didn't lock, and there were no locked bins for our luggage. There were also stains all over the floor, and the shower pressure was awful. There was zero security, considering no passports were looked at and anyone could come into our room, since no one checked.

Comments: When I checked into the hostel around 10pm, the beds were slept in. I would think that with a required checkout time of 10am, it shouldn't be too hard to at least put clean sheets on the beds before 10pm. Overall... not impressed

Comments: The staff was useless when it came to tourist info/advice. Also, the hallways are very poorly lit, which makes it scary to check in at night. The breakfast was nice though!

Comments: The water pressure in the shower was terrible. Plus, one must keep holding the button to keep the water flowing as it stops after only a few seconds otherwise. Staff didn't mention that the card key must be replaced before checkout time (10 am) in order to re-enter one's room, so I had to go down to the desk to get another card key after hiking all the way up to my room after eating breakfast when I couldn't get into it after 9 am.

Comments: Worst hostel ever. Be aware of the snobbish blonde polish receptionist-she thinks she is working in a Hilton and treats you so-try to avoid asking her questions, this will only make you mad. She was the first bad impression we had from this hostel and nothing there was nice to get the bad impression good-bad bunkbeds, showers, kitchen-thrown breakfast food-no first aid. Not even the reserved bottom bunk bed we could get. Try to avoid this hostel!!

Comments: This is the worst Hostel I ever seen in my whole life! It is completely filthy and old, the so called breakfast is a bad joke, the throw at you two pieces of toast and an awful cup of coffee. The showers only have one fixed temperature, and they are so filthy that you don't even want to take a shower there. The carpet is so filthy that I got an infection in my feet! My advice is to take any other option rather that this horrible, disgusting and filthy hostel
