Comments: Their rooms do not have a lock and everyone can come into the hotels at anytime. It doesn't has a staff at the counter at. Sometime, you need to wait for them for 5 mins after a ring. You should be ware of the pick pocket. the toliets and room are clean.

Comments: nice little hostel with very friendly staff; some security might be better; a little too expensive for what you get: noisy beds, old matresses; still, you feel to be welcome and might go there again when the weather is better

Comments: It was a bit irritating that the girl on the reception couldn't speak english well, but all in all, it was great. The rooms are big, bathrooms clean, common room cosy and the manager is definitely the heart of the hostel! Location is perfect if you are traveling by bus (bus stop is 2 foot steps away) and if you are traveling by car, there is a car park right in front of the hostel. This is the best hostel in Clifden.

Comments: Clifden Hostel staff is extremely helpful and friendly - whatever you need: ask him! The sitting room downstairs is especially nice with boardgames and a great view on main-street. Only two drawbacks: the kitchen is a bit shabby and not very clean. The more important thing: there are no locks antwhere on the room-doors and front door is open all day. Nothing got away, but it could have very easily. Otherwise the hostel is very cozy and charming, right in the "city" centre.

Comments: I've been there in July. You'll like Clifden and the hostel very much !! You'll be more than well informed and advised about what to visit and how to reach the site. You'll be very well welcomed by the nicest inhabitants I've ever met in Ireland. Go straight to the pubs !!!! ENJOY !!!

Comments: Clifden is a very boring town! My sister and i circled the whole thing 4-5 times in about an hour and didnt find much. There are some cute stores but they close early, and the nightlife is pretty lame. Not many young people there at all.

Comments: One of the staff members, a middle aged man, was very helpful and went out of his way to help my sick girlfriend. He also put in much extra effort. The place was awkward though.

Comments: Although I would rate this as an average hostel overall, the views that the owner led me to were incredible to say the least, I would recommend this hostel from this aspect alone. He was very friendly and helpful in all aspects.
