The rooms are clean and the linen is crispy white.
They need to consider allowing guests to choose if they want a room with females only or a unisex room. It's creepy to wake up in a room with unknown men. That can be dangerous if a female traveler is alone in a 4-bed room with 3 male roommates.

Atmosphere , friendlyness .
Every floor has 24 rooms and every room 8 pax. Almost 200 beds for floor. But for male has to go only one big bathroom area and Girls opposite. If you need to pee you need to rin almost 100 meters marathon. 😀 when it is possible please split it two floors. Like ten baths one floor , 10 baths one floor instead of 20 in one floor. 🙏🙏 There was no kitchen one hostellers and no water facility. Only option 2.5 eu half liter option was not fisible. Beside that is liked it.

Service was prompt and always someone at reception. They are the place's best asset and were extremely accommodating, friendly and sound out. I was coming in late (12.00) so it was good to have someone there to meet and explain. Whilst Saturday night had a good few people staying and bar was busy, it wasn't noisy. Beds are typical hostel size (but it is a hostel, not the Hilton!) but were clean and had own separate light, plugs and locker. The bathrooms and showers were clean and latter available at all times. Great location off the Luas tram stop and a few 100 meters from Heuston Train Station. A short walk too from the City Centre and a lot of other facilities (Museum, Guinness Brewery, Phoenix Park, Stoneybatter). Ideally, this hostel is more suitable to groups of young backpackers, but I was grateful for it as needed in short notice. It does what it says on the tin and it does it well.
Heating on made it difficult to sleep first night, but then it was probably hottest this summer. Could've done with a second pillow, but then I'm awkward out. On the flip side, there was one or two pedantic issues, but even though it was 12.00 midnight, the staff behind the front desk sorted it in no time at all.

Felt really safe. There was security at the entrance and you need to use your keycard in the elevator. The bunkbed was clean and spacious. Windows were able to be opened so there was always fresh air. Staff was friendly enough. They apparently gave me an upgrade to accommodate my request to have a lower bunk, which is very nice. The price was definitely top-notch for what I got!
I didn´t particularly care for the atmosphere? I like smaller, more cosy, hostels. This felt like a party hotel. Massive hostel, dreadful karaoke-style music coming from the lounge, two-for-one shots while watching a soccer game...all this is preference though. Just not my vibe. The location wasn´t my favorite (there´s hostels closer to the centre of town), but it was quiet. Pillow could´ve been better.

Staff really friendly, relaxed vibe, nice bar and facilities like pool, shuffleboard, games etc. Room was for 8, basic but comfortable and good value for money as only used as a base. Good location, 5-10 mins taxi to bars and restaurants etc. Definitely recommend if your doing a group weekend away
Could have included shower get and towels but is what it is, Tesco and shops within 5 mins walking. I would recommend buying alcohol duty-free for the room and buying plastic/paper cups as can't take drinks up to the room from the bar, also it's a hell of a lot cheaper too.

The Luas was about 3 min walk, the food is great, the atmosphere is is lovely and all kinds of people from different cultures brilliant. The staff is very friendly and if you anything and if it's in there they will, I asked for a spar dovet and I was about to get in the to the room and it was handed me. Food great, Visitor's and Staff.brileant what more could a person want. PS the orange juice is to die for.
Just that could have a bus stop near for people that is traveling a long distance.

All in all,well organized hostel with good vibes. They rent towels and adaptor( ok, could have been included in the price) in case you need them. There is an individual light and socket for each bed, which is very good, as well as a sink in the room. There was always someone cleaning the toilets and showers!
Could have curtains for each bed as is the new facility in high end hostels worldwide. And with the price you pay, you would expect that. The pillow was pretty flat to my liking, but this is very personal.

THE PERFECT PLACE FOR A GETAWAY FOR ANY DAY YOU CONSIDER. EASY, FAST AND CHEAP. It is the ideal place to stay if you are traveling alone for whatever reason. The area where the hostel is located is ideal, close to all the relevant sites in the city within walking distance. As if that were not enough, it has a "recreation" area where all types of people gather and different activities are organized. It is ideal for meeting people of all kinds. Plus, it's cheap, the people who stay in your room usually don't make noise or bother you. It delivers what it promises in spades. A place to have fun and sleep, without complications.

The location was perfect for the centre of town being a short walk away and access to a tram/bus stops. The property itself was incredibly clean and really lovely, super comfortable and safe. The drinks were slightly pricey, but so worth having a drink in the hostel bar as I met some amazing people! First time travelling on my own and first time staying in a hostel, has inspired me to book bigger and longer trips, would definitely return in a heartbeat.
The drinks at their bar was pretty pricey and I could have done with a second pillow! But that is me being super fussy. for the price of the room it was perfect.

The structure is wonderful and the bathroom is huge. There will be no problems with overcrowding.I couldn't forget the names of Brazilians Gustavo and Mariana( .I was here from 5/03 until 06/03. They are extremely professional. Mariana from São Paulo is a sweetheart, I felt very welcomed by her. She reminded me of my former manager, who was love too.Gustavo was also very helpful and helped me with a problem I had in the early hours of the morning. He promptly changed my room.
I had to change rooms overnight, because unfortunately there is no hotel filter to detect problematic people. The problem is that detection is often predictable.Many people arrive drunk in the early hours of the morning looking for a hostel and they accept them as guests. It often looks like a drunk shelter, Despite the excellent structure, the lack of filter is a failure for the hostel.
