I was placed in the Gallery Bed #3. It was directly beside the bathroom and the entrance. It was a "sleepless night" when I desperately needed some rest.

Great cheap nights sleep. It was confusing to find my way around and find the chapel area. 10 minute walk to Oconnell st which was nice, lots of option for.food.
Catherine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I stayed in a bunk bed private room for 2 people. The room was small but clean. The bathroom is shared with other guests although I seldom saw anyone during my 2 night stay. It is close to city center. It also provides simple Continental breakfast. Storing luggage will charge you eight euros. It was an ok stay.

I was a bit underwhelmed by the selection of „Bread“ which was provided as Breakfast (just white and wholemeal Toast), but everything else was really nice :)

Marlena, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location if you're planning on attending an event at Croke Park stadium. Other than that, Dublin city centre is reasonably walkable from there. Convenience store, pubs, and some Asian restaurants are a short walk away. As for the place itself, I think it's pretty top notch for a hostel. Shared facilities get cleaned regularly, so are most often in fairly decent condition.

4/10 Fair

Noisy inside and out. Can hear everything in the halls and others rooms, including the people coming and going at all hours. Some renovations seem to be done at cheap levels. Some staff seemed to be annoyed to be doing their work.
