Wall outlets in the bunks were not working, but they are apparently fixing this ASAP. Also, laundry machines & luggage storage was quite expensive.

Fantastic location, central to everything in Dublin. Staff and facilities were lovely and the common areas were filled with people from the afternoon onwards. They ran social events most nights, too.

The staff atention. Bunch of young guys with the worst attitude. The only rude people in all Dublin are in this lobby. Excepting the blonde girl at the reception who was very nice; all the other personal had a very poor quality and attitude.

The room, the location and the facilites.

The room locker is broken. It can’t be locked properly.

The bed is comfortable and sheet is clean. The bathroom is also well organized.

I booked this place I'm advance for 2 beds yet for some reason they didn't put us in the same room. They tried to resolve it when we arrived but nothing happened. It was honestly fine but a little weird considering we booked it a few weeks in advance.

Everything is clean and tidy.

- Room not particularly comfortable. A little worse than a certain German blue and orange hostel/hotel chain, but at 3x the price. Okay for 1-2 nights or if you're only in Dublin to get drunk, I guess. Sadly probably still good value for money because it's Dublin and because of the location. - Mattresses completely worn - you can feel every bit of the the metal base underneath when sitting down too fast. - Elevators take ridiculously long to pick you up. Weird programming. - Could use some more signage, for e.g. locker rooms hidden 3 floors below

+ Excellent Location + Breakfast (discounted when booked through pre-stay email link) was surprisingly good + Clean, decent bathroom + Friendly staff

Maybe at the times you can hear outside noise from the corridor.

I really enjoyed the stay at Clink i Lar. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy. No complaints.

When we stayed, the electrical sockets and lights in our bunks wasn't working so we had no way to charge our devices or see what we were doing at night... I'm sure they've since rectified it though!

The hostel had a really friendly, inclusive atmosphere. There was always someone on reception and the staff were so helpful! The rooms were big for Dublin and the beds were comfortable.

Unfortunately, I had a bad experience in terms of room facilities that prevents me to give this hostel 5 stars. The plugs and lamps in the bed are great but didn’t work. And I need to charge my devices because I’m out the whole day. I tried everything and I guess others didn’t work too because there was a high demand among the 6 guests for the two working plugs in the room. The other guests were really nice and friendly though. Bad maintenance but shouldn’t happen in a hostel this size/price. The bathroom is en-suite and is big (wheelchair accessible) but there’s no shower curtain, no way to have bathroom rug because it gets all wet. And the worst: the mattress. Terrible mattress! I woke up with a terrible back pain! There were lockers in the room, but again one or two were broken, so not everyone could have a locker. I’m impressed with a lack of maintenance in a hostel this size and price, and how cheap they went for the mattress. I messaged the hostel regarding the plugs because I was working in the room but they only got to me the next day.

Location is great. In front of the red tram line and facilities and the hostel are new. Central location, allows to walk everywhere. Restaurants next door. Several bathrooms, locker room, laundry room. All new and working. I had the buffet breakfast that was complete and good (I love breakfast) and I was happy that I had that option. Basically, for all you need, like to store your belongings, it’s there but it is paid.

Only sligh negative is that they overprice a little for small utilities like padlocks, umbrellas towels etc

Great hostel. Comfortable room and bad. Nice atmosphere and lots of space in the common area which is also a bar.

Careful: no kitchen to use for people sleeping there, but they serve breakfast every morning. Also, the matresses are not really the comfiest I've ever slept on. You can feel the springs (but it still wasn't too bad), yet this is a hip place and a great atmosphere in the lounge for a hangout!

Clean, well-equipped rooms; very modern, with USB-slots and lots of plugs. Bathroom clean, spacious shower with shower gels etc (in my double-room). When I arrived, I was told that there had been an overbooking of the hostel. Gladly, the staff solved this problem smoothly by upgrading me from a dorm to a private room - first time in my traveling career and I greatly appreciate it - thanks for making this easy. Overall, I would definitely stay again. I could even see the Spire from my window - very impressive.

The check in queue was long and had to wait a while. its also so busy the elevator took forever and sometimes was too full so had to wait for the next one, we were on the 10th floor so definitely wasnt gonna take the stairs. Beds are think mattress and a tiny pillow

Great location, just 5 min walk to temple bar, beautiful view of the city, double rooms have nice hot shower lots of plug sockets

We really had wished there had been water glasses in the room. For the price paid we weren't expecting a kettle with tea's etc but 2 glasses or even plastic cups would've been a useful addition.

Location is absolutely superb! We stayed in a private room which was spacious with clean bedding and towels, equipped with shampoo/conditioner/shower gel. Check in process was really easy, we opted for the early check in which we thought was quite good value for money at €15. We used the bar twice, once for coffee and nibbles which were nice and the second time for drinks before we headed out - really nice atmosphere. Saw on posters they do loads of themed nights which would've been fun but didn't line up with our plans this time

Access by vehicle was limited & parking wasn’t available anywhere near to unload luggage

The staff were very helpful & knowledgeable. Having a lift to the 6th floor was great. Availability of meals onsite & washing machines was a bonus

Good and cheap breakfast (8 EUR) if you book it in advance. Super kind staff and very clean hostel. (maybe because it is quiet new). :)
