With free WiFi, printing, and luggage storage, the hostel also offers continental breakfast and a shared lounge. The reception staff can arrange tours to the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara, and the Aran Islands. It exceeded expectations. Staff was incredibly nice and helpful, and went overboard to make you feel confortable. Room, bathroom and common areas were great and spotless clean. You could borrow towels, hair dryer, band-aids, etc., which was really convenient. Breakfast was amazing, and I would also recommend singing up for the common dinner and pub crawl, I had a blast!

The location was fantastic and the Carpark by the cathedral was perfect. 5 minutes walk, cheap and safe. The room was welcoming and generous in comfort and extra details. (Prosecco!) close to everything.
Lovely and clean Comfortable bed Great location Good pints Friendly efficient staff Parking a bit away for anyone with accessibility ♿️ difficulties
Great location everything I wanted to do was walkable. Staff are extremely friendly and approachable and also very helpful. The free hostel breakfast is definitely one of the best hostel breakfasts I’ve ever encountered. It’s also a very social hostel with activities on most nights that are easy to access and super fun, as a solo traveller this was awesome! The rooms are spacious with secure crates to keep your stuff + privacy curtains were appreciated. Bathrooms are clean and numerous.
