It is a hostel. The place does not provide towels or wash cloths without paying extra. There are no hooks in the bathroom or shower to hang towels or wash cloths.

No TVs in the private rooms????

So first of all I understand not having TVs in the dorm style rooms, but really...not in the private rooms? Some of us like to unwind and watch some TV or fall asleep with the sleep timer on. NO TVs in the private rooms but the bed and bathroom was really nice. But you cant bring water or snacks to the room or they will chrge you 50 euro...which i find very odd and very much a headache. Good location and good prices.

I liked that the property was so close to the south side of the city. I did not like that there was a hallway undergoing renovations that no one told us about.

My first time ever using a hostel and I would definitely do it again. From young little kids to the old, everyone was welcome. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Best part a grocery store was half a block away.
Cute games room for the young and old.
Full breakfast offered every morning and a wonderful price

The hostel is ideally situated only a short walk away from Temple Bar district. There are lots of pubs, restaurants and coffee shops nearby, and there's a major chain grocery store only a few steps away. The staff are always present, very helpful, and very friendly. The facilities are also very clean and very well maintained. The only downsides are: - No communal kitchen and they do not allow outside food on the premises (although apparently this is tolerated to a certain degree), which is very inconvenient since it forces you to buy food from the bar or the cafeteria within the hostel itself. - The shared showers and toilets are in the basement, and there are no mirrors or plug outlets there, which makes it inconvenient for women to do their hair/makeup in those areas. There was a bathroom with a mirror in the room I stayed in, but this was not practical for late showers / hair blow drying because of the noise and disturbance of the other room guests in the room.

Perfect location and a clean, comfortable place to lay your head at the end of the day. The self-check-in was a touch confusing, but there was someone on hand to assist. The rooms are basic, but clean and the shower was great. The bar downstairs was welcoming and fun. Some of the “house rules” are a bit weird (no alcohol in your room, even a private room?), but it’s mostly the kind of place you just use to sleep. Very decent overall.

Excellent place! So modern, great rooms with privacy, as each bed has a blackout drape, a reading lamp and an area to plug your phone in. Bathrooms are modern and spotless, and there's both a bathroom with a sink and another shower with a sink. The downstairs is awesome, great full bar, espresso machine to make great coffee drinks, and excellent food. The staff were so friendly, helpful and patient! I'll recommend this place and most definitely stay here again! Best hostel I've stayed in! Thanks Jenn
