Bathroom and the bed sheet wasn't spread.

Nice staff

Unfortunately, when sharing a dorm room with strangers, you don't know who you'll be staying with. I had the misfortune to share my dorm room with a man who snored like a Godzilla sized warthog all night long. This isn't Generator's fault, but in future I will be bringing heavy duty earplugs.

The Generator is a great, affordable location for a visit to Dublin. The hostel has a comfortable lounge and bar area and it's in a nice part of the city.

Front-desk Staff was very rude and seemed annoyed or inconvenienced when we went up to front desk to check-in or ask for supplies

Great location, nice lobby/common area, many toilets and showers

I didn’t like the breakfast. It was super plain.

Love the location. Was able to take a bus from the airport. The hostel is close enough to the bus stop making it super easy and cheap to get around.

It was loud and seemed excessively priced for a hostel

Cool place and spot

The guy who has been snoring so loudly all night long :(

Staff, breakfast and the other people that i met in the hostel!

checking into the generator was simple and the staff was very friendly and helpful

The room was dirty when we got in, there were onions stuck to the wall, there was blood on the ceiling above one of the bunks, the fact that we had to pay for even a hand towel wasn’t brilliant. I thought a hand towel could have been provided, as unless we paid we had no way of drying our hands or face when washing.

The place itself was great, the bar area was reasonably priced and good quality, the pool tables etc were a good touch.

Checkin process was ridiculous despite doing pre check in online. Took far too long and passports were required. Also the price has skyrocketed in recent years. It would have been cheaper for us to stay in a hotel and the rooms for groups of 6 were tiny

Location and condition is very good

All okay

All good

The large groups of young adults/ teenagers that tried to fight the security staff while we were at the location.

Generator Dublin had all the basics you could need plus a large social area. I liked that everything was explained clearly in regards to the facilities and rooms.

No towels in room (I didn't read the small print) option to rent though. Our corridor was slightly noisy with other guests but ear plugs on offer for €1.

Price and facilities on offer. We had an overnight in Dublin where cost was our main priority. Booked a private room for 4 of us. We arrived at 9.30pm and left at 6am. Perfect for our needs. Lockers for storing bags during the day while sightseeing, next to a Tesco metro and main bus route for airport.

The dorm bunks were quite exposed without a curtain

Stayed in a 8 bed dorm with 7 of us so was great for socialising and planning for the day. Fantastic location with lots of food and shops around it.

The overall cleanliness Is not so good, the first room provided was so noisy (near the hall with high volume music, people slamming doors, etc.) that we felt unconfortable to sleep in and we asked to swap for another room (staff was kind and apologized for It and they agreed to our request, I have appreciated that). Rooms are lacking shelves/tables to hold any small object that you commonly take out from your pockets/luggages/backpack. Even the toilet does not have shelves to hold any item (e.g. toothbrush, personal belongings)

The Building Is close to the city center and well connected to public transportation stops. There are a lot of activities that can be done at the hostel, the staff Is friendly and matresses are comfortable

Really good location, value is actually quite good for Dublin and for the facilities. A lot to do downstairs

In a hostel much depends on your roommates for the night. Some were good, some not.

Good location in my favourite part of Dublin. Friendly atmosphere, all ages. Good bar.

Stayed in January 2025

The only downside is that it can be very noisy after midnight with people in and out slamming doors all the time. Also the bathroom was a bit scary - random drunk people puking in showers and leaving a mess.

Very convenient place to stay in Dublin.

The door to the balcony in our room was broken and didn’t close

It was in a good location

The noise at night was a bit much

I liked the bar and the hostel communal spaces

Stayed in December 2024

Felt dirty and dusty in corners of the bedroom.

Great communal area and generally offered everything we needed.
