    Everything has to be bought, even to let your luggage in a safe space before checkin. The adaptator are not fitting int the plug on the room, we had to have a refund for it. The shower pression was so bad, that i had to stick to the wall to have water. The air conditionning wasn't working : too cold or too hot... can't be stopped.

    The staff is very charming and helpfull. The location of the hotel is perfect to visit dublin and Temple bar !!

    Not compassionate people

    They promised to refund my money which they refused to do even though I did not use the hostel again.

    None of the outlets in the hostel bunk beds were working. This only left 2 plug-ins for the entire room of 12 guests. The motion-sensor light in the bathroom would also not register if someone was in the shower so the lights would turn off every minute. The hand dryers didn’t work on our floor & towels were not provided so no way to dry your hands. Luggage lockers were also small. Very limited outlets in the dining area. Not a very “social” hostel. The window in our room was frosted & I would’ve loved to see the view from the higher floor.

    The property is brand new & very clean. It was easy to find my way around. The bedding provided was nice. Every staff member I interacted with was absolutely amazing & extremely helpful with my late luggage arrival situation.

    Plugs and light didn’t work beside bed. The plug on the wall outside the bunks had also been smashed by someone so was shattered all over the floor and unusable. Another person in the room told me (as we packed to check out, so too late for me) that he had been provided a power bank by staff when he checked in. The room was pretty thrashed when I arrived also, but that seemed to be down to 1 party staying in the room and not the hostels fault necessarily. Booking.com also told me I had a 6 bed female room but I was in a 4 bed mixed room with all males but that was fine, bar the 1 guy who had made such a mess!

    Lovely new building in a great location. I dropped my bags before check in and the screen on the wall wouldn’t allow me to take a locker, so a very helpful member of staff helped me and did not charge me bag storage.

    Not much. It is a brand new hostel, a few flaws are understandable.

    The hostel is new in Dublin, location is central, has an enjoyable vibe and friendly personnel. Big hi 5 to Bryan at reception and Yemina in the Food & Beverage. The place is clean, has a kitchen to use at will and the Wi-Fi works really well. I recommend.

    The best and newest hostel in Dublin. Very close to every attractions. Restaurants and supermarket in the next buildings. Pubs and clubs also 5-10 minutes walk. Staff is very friendly. Rooms are clean and totally new beds. I'm liked everything. I recommend this hostel for everyone!

    Minus points for the non-functioning spotlight by the bed and the non-opening windows in the mass bedroom.

    I especially liked the design of the hostel, the super friendly staff and the cleanliness.
