Stayed in June 2022

Room was a bit hot and damp. Bed was okay but no shelf or place to put things. No personal light. Quite a lot of stairs

Nice atmosphere. Good kitchen. luggage storage and laundry available. I've never seen a triple decker bunk before. Staff responded well to disability access request -lower bunk necessary.

Everything was as expected, friendly and helpful staff, very good conditions for the price paid.

Rooms are really small but it's rather normal in hostels

The service and communication were really good. A fully equipped kitchen, hand towels and soap in the bathroom were a pleasant surprise. Contrary to other hostels we've visited in Ireland, this one was very cosy and clean.

Basic - but it is a hostel!

Close to the centre and ideal for our trip! Room was clean!

Too noisy at night, lounge too small so it felt crowded, no wifi available in dormitories

Location, friendly staff, good kitchen

Stayed in June 2022

The dorm was a fright. 8 beds crammed into a small space. People coughing, COVID breeding conditions. Thin hard beds and no privacy. One lucky bed had a chair by it, there was no safe surface to put anything on, my glasses fell on the floor and got scratched. No bath mat so the shower room floor was soaked. Very very basic dorm, beds not even against the walls.

The staff make it a great place. It's not disabled accessible, steep narrow stairs, but they arranged a lower bunk for me. I like the way the staff mix with the guests and cook bread in the kitchen, and their patience when I was down for breakfast at 6am. Delicious flapjacks for breakfast and limitless tea and coffee. A really good kitchen. Nice but small common room.

Only thing was the pillows could be a bit more bigger/softer, but that's just me!

Staff were very chill, I liked the decor and chill out area.

Very good location, nice staff

Neighbourhood is noisy (there is a pub opposite and quite a lot of foot traffic (our window directly overlooked the street). The room was very cramped with two bunkbeds and very little storage space. The beds are very low, head injury hazard :) No mixer taps (except for the shower).

Large, well equipped kitchen and a comfy common room. Incredibly helpful staff. Good location, mid-way between the centre and the cathedral.

The room was quite small and it wouldve been nice to have a small table or chair because the only possibility to sit was on the bed.

Nice cozy doublebedroom with private bathroom. Friendly staff at the reception. There is no "real" breakfast but you can take homemade bread and flapjacks from the kitchen. Also nice to have free access to the hostel kitchen and common area.

It was not made clear that breakfast was not served.

Good location close to centre, clean room and sanitary, friendly and fun host Kenny.

The bed was really hard. But I was too tired for it to make a huge difference to my sleep.

First, that they were able to get us in on short notice when there was a mixup with our reservation at another location for the night. Second, the room had a private bathroom and was at the back of the hostel, very little traffic noise. Third, the location was great for walking parts of the city that we had wanted to visit. I have never stayed at a hostel before and was impressed by the facilities.

The room is really tight. You can not even tight your own shoes without touching one of your 8 roommates. Really noisy, since it is close to pubs, felt like the street was passing inside the room.

It is central, and the staff is quite nice. The breakfast had fruits, bread and oats. Windows for fresh air in the room.

Good value for money. More comfortable and clean than expected. No faults

3 rd storey bunk bed was scary and sore climbing up on my feet especially hungover 🤣

The man at reception originally from Brazil was the kindest and nice's person ever. We had a laugh 🤣

Got some lousy neighbours on the second night. The silence rule should be better observed among the guests. Not the hotel's fault and a minor detail in comparison with the amenities provided but, maybe finding an easier way to communicate with the reception late at night as it is located in the other building would help.

Nice breakfast with what looked like homemade bread and oatcake. The room was very comfortable and clean. The separate building for the hotel-like rooms was a pleasant surprise.

The room while cozy was lacking regarding bedside outlets and reading lights which would have made the room more comfortable. Furthermore the bathroom was on the small side but managable. Although it didn't bother me there was no lift on site

The Woodquay Hostel is a centrally located budget accommodation which provides excellent value for money. The staff are helpful and free breakfast (soda bread - butter - jam - fruit - tea & coffee) was provided daily which is a nice touch. The communal areas are well maintained and the room clean and comfortable. The room was expectedly on the small side but was comfortable and had decent storage. The shower had great water pressure. All in all a great stay.
