The rooms are spacious and beautiful. We were 28 in a room and didnt crowded at all. The place itself soooo beautiful and I felt safe. The bathroom within the room (the pew) was incredible (hair dryer included). Bathrooms were super clean as well. Loved the free breakfast! The only « negative » thing I would say is the towel, it would be appreciated if it was included as well or with deposit! Location wise is okay, 20 to 25 minutes walk to temple bar area!

The property was in a good location, close to things and not noisy. I loved the sleeping pods, as they offered comfort and privacy. Pillows need replacing however hard and flat

I appreciated the security of the building, and I could tell parts had been recently renovated. It didn’t have as much community as I’m used to with hostels, but it was a fine place to crash after a long day out!

There is BIKE locking station in the garden. A jacuzzi, games room, etc. Rooms are cleaned multiple times daily. Never a wait for shower or bathroom. Beds are supper comfy, pillows are flat like a pancake 😁. I really loved this hostel's design. Thank you staff for your hard work and kind and helpful customer service. You are the real MVPs! Only con: you have to pay 8 euros to store your baggage if you arrive before check in time. But you are more than welcome to lounge in the common room until check in time.
