    Unfortunately during our stay there was a technical problem with electricity and we could not use the individual power sources of our beds at all (side lights, sockets, etc). That was uncomfortable cause I could not read at night or charge my phone overnight, BUT administration and staff took measures to restore and we appreciated it. They gave us mini power banks, free towels x2 & free luggage storage the day of our departure. Staff generally were very kind and helpful! Wish I remembered their names, but they were many!

    Location was top 🔝🔝🔝! 5’ walking from Temple Bar District and O’conells street, very central but quiet at night, surrounded by a lot of supermarkets, restaurants of different cuisines, malls and… Penneys (Primark)! Truly innumerable choices for shopping and entertainment, we saved all the money we would use for transportation! Safe to walk at night. Hostel was new, so were all the premises, big kitchen and common rooms on multiple levels. A lot of people were relaxing there, we preferred not to, since the temperature was a bit low for our standards (was December) and kitchen sometimes was smelly from people’s use. We had a dorm with 4 beds, it was clean & there was cleaning service every day. Wardrobes had no lockers, you had to buy one or have your own. Every bed had 2 shells, curtain, small hooks for towels, a small side light and a socket.

    The light in the shower goes off in approx. 20 sec and then it is complete dark unless you move to the shower door. Other customers already left same comment however no action taken. The small light next to bed was not working so reading is not possible. The common space has not a single quiet area to chill as everywhere loudspeakers are installed and connected playing quite loud music from the bar (that is definitely ,not to the taste of everyone), so if you plan just to have a conversation with a new/old friend or read a book in chill area be prepared to have "pumping" music as a sound background.

    The location is really great and you can reach many tourist attractions by foot. the building is new, everything is really clean and tidy and the staff is helpful. The mattress, bed sheets and pillow were comfortable and separate shower and wc in the room is much appreciated as you do not need to walk outside the room to go there. Next to bed on the wall the USB charger socket is available and you can also get a charger for you phone at a reception.

    Someone accidentally set off the fire alarm at 3 am. Mentioned this to staff in the morning and they didn't seem interested.

    Comfy beds, the curtains and lights make the bunks feel private. Good space to store belongings both in the bunks and the lockers.

    4 of us booked a bed in a 4 bed dorm and asked if we would be in the same room which was confirmed that we would. Just before arriving we were told this might not be the case so would have to pay extra to guarantee it. The sensors for the shower room and toilet could do with being longer.

    Unfortunately, the plugs did not work next to our bed. We had to use an extension to charge our cellphone. We thought the electricity plug next to our bed was broken. Some beds the electricity works, other does not. Maybe the staff has to check the plugs each time they clean the bed.

    My journey in this hostel was very cool. We have curtain to be separated to the others,

    Only down side was that because it was still so new they hadn't quite finished everything - no power in the rooms on the top floor but they provided portable chargers. Has probably been rectified by now though!

    Brand new hostel with great facilities and heaps of staff to help. Dorm beds well thought out with half enclosure and curtains. Location is super convenient, right in the middle of town.

    Air conditioning: We lived on a 5th floor in a 8-persons room and there was clearly not enough air to breathe. Once we even asked a management to check a condition. They’ve made it and said that it’s OK. Well, it’s not. Also, the only one window in our room was closed and it’s not possible to open it: we were said that it’s a strict rule because of the high floor… Doors noise: guys, do something with doors. The toilet door on our floor knocked each time so hard, that my bed was vibrating. It’s not normal at all. In 21st century there are some mechanisms, you know, to fix it 😉 No rules: For example, half of our food which we storages in the common fridge, with labels and names on it, was eaten by someone. Some people from our room entered in 2 am, switching on the lights. I know some similar hostels as this one, in Germany. They do a lot to let guests feel safety and respectful to each other. Just putting some stickers with the information about rules signed by your hostel on a fridge, on a door, near the elevator for example. So guests will be aware of the rules and will see it all the time.

    Situated in a very center, it’s just cool! Nice atmosphere in public spaces of the hostel, a lot of place where you can sit, work, eat and feel cozy. In few words, looks very nice and modern but…

    The bathroom wasn't cleaned well upon our arrival (shower cabin). The lock in the door wasn't working properly which made me feel a bit unsafe at night.

    Great vibe! A lot of space in the common area for hanging out or working. Friendly staff and the reception (with security) there 24/7. Good coffee at the reception. Internet working very well in the entire place.

    It's not about accommodation but the bar which is really nice doesn't serve draught beer in Dublin Ireland. I think it would be really nice

    It is clean, cheap, new, convenient and welcoming. It's everything you ask for a hotel. Best thing is the quality of the bank beds
