Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very convenient for exploring Dublin. Get what you expect from a hostel, 24/7 front desk which is good. Only small issue is rooms at the rear of the hostel are a bit of a trek to get to and back onto a nightclub, fine if you're in the club until closing which we ended up doing both nights.

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff was great. I don’t like the policy of paying to store luggage on the day of check out. The building is interesting with twists and turns in hallways to get to a free bathroom, tv room, and kitchen. We do plan to stay there again.
