The accommodations are Spartan but quite adequate and very reasonably priced. The staff is friendly, helpful and efficient. The area is in the heart of Dublin easy to get everywhere.

6/10 Good

Great shower, but room was warm in spite of the outside being cold. The downstairs restaurant was excellent but was also source of late night noise.
Richard, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The location was ideal, so close to the sights and entertainment. It was great that there is a big kitchen for everyone to use. The facility doesn’t seem to be updated in decades though. I would have liked a little shelf, light and outlet at my top bunk which tends to be standard at other less expensive hotels around Europe. Also, the facility would be improved if the mold smell in the bathrooms could somehow be dealt with.
Joanna, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

As a budget hostel in high priced Dublin, it meets expectations. A 2-4 bed room with en-suite bath/shower would meet my needs, but only if price is paramount. Beds were well made. The ventilation for rooms leaves a lot to be desired. Management should consider an air freshener, and even better, air handling. Finding your way to a room is much easier because of guidelines painted on the floor.
Richard, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Hotels.com disastrous customer service.
Utter disaster. Arrived at hostel to be told that it was under renovation and no room was available. Simply not good enough from the hostel and Hotels.com.

The light in the bathroom didn't work. It was very loud: the bar in the alley behind our room would throw out beer bottles at all hours of the evening and in the morning. Could hear everything through the thin walls. It's definitely a hostel level experience. Not horrible, but not enjoyable.

Last resort
It was my second time staying here and that is down to the extortion by hotels in these times. I checked in on line thinking it be just to collect key card when I arrived but the process took 10 mins. Had to climb 3 flights of stairs to get to my 8 bed dormitory when it had a fowl smell and evidence of condensation on the walls. The bed was the only clean place, everywhere else had dust cobwebs all around.
Declan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great stay, shame about cleanliness of ensuite.
Bathrooms need attention, paricularly the ensuite in shared dorms, main bathrooms seemed better - not what you'd expect. No toilet roll, dirty, no bin so someone left ised contacts and sanitary pad in the bathroom on the side. Not a pleasant experience. Other than the ensuite being grim, this hostel was great. Staff on reception were polite and helpful. Able to store bags in lockers if early or need to store bags after check out - super helpful. Shared spaces to relax and a friendly atmosphere.
Miss Lowri, 1-night trip

I got some sleep at least
The service was generally acceptable, front desk were there and receptive. The room I was staying out however, smelled of sewage and was very unpleasant and barely cleaned. Plus my bed was not near a charger at all so I had to charge on a shelf, and climb down my bed and run to the alarm when it rung. The luggage storage was a pain because you had to look all around the building, outside to an alley, and back into another building. The luggage storage definitely needed to be cleaned and aired out, all I smelled was a high school gym locker. The shower and restrooms could've also used a bit of cleaning as well

Geen ontbijt of koffie terwijl dit er wel zou zijn. Rosie op 100m is trouwens top! Bezig met verbouwingen van s morgens vroeg tot 17 uur waarbij het ontruimingsalarm regelmatig afgaat. Goeie wekker maar op het verkeerde tijdstip. Ligging is top en de douches zijn ook prima. Echter rijdt er 24/7 uur heeeel veeeel verkeer langs.

ホステルとしては、人気施設なのでしょうがホテルとしては、設備が古いと感じました。スタッフは親切で、感じの良い方々でした。朝食は食パンとコーンフレークでタンパク質はありません。口コミ情報発信のあり方に問題があるのだと思います。

Il a fallu payer 82€ en plus pour une chambre déjà payer par le site. Chambre minimaliste, pas de serviette. Odeur de vomi dans la cuisine. Personnels pas tous agréable. Point positif: l'emplacement (temple bar est un quartier super)
Florence, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Excellente localisation en plein centre près de toutes les attractions touristiques avec des chambres au calme. Par contre propreté moyenne et équipement vieillot. Mieux vaut aller sous la douche avec des slashs, eau chaude qui met 10 minutes à chauffer, salle de bain ultra humide qui dégouline de partout dès qu'on allume l'eau, robinet de l'évier non réglable comme un robinet de toilettes publiques. L'emplacement et le personnel rattrape le tout.
