adam connollybusy hostel, great location for trams to the city. Free BBQ and pancakes were good! We stayed in double room with was quite big though above bar downstairs which has live bands, very noisy. Maybe better if you are on 2nd floor. Overall enjoyed this hostel. |

Customer reviewNice atmosphere and free breakfast everyday! Really funny events and a great place to meet people. However... Toilets and the showers are really dirty and disgusting. Even after the cleaners had been in there it looked bad. The beds isn't that comfy, my mattress was broken so I have a back pain because of a spring that was hard, while the rest was soft.. And the bed didn't have a ladder and really unsteady, slightest movement from either the top or the bottom, the entire bed would sway. Really chilly rooms. The windows are always open in the bathroom, so taking a shower when it is cold outside is a nightmare. Our room had this foul smell so we had to have the window open at all times, which resulted in that I got a cold for several days. Not enough place in the fridges, my items got smashed. other than that... Oh yeah no real isolation between the rooms and corridor, heard everything at all times, including the bar. |

Chrystal KennedyStaff were extremely friendly. It was very loud because we were above a pub, but it was unavoidable. |

Customer reviewDepends heavily on what you are looking for. If you are purely there to party, then it is certainly the place to be. However if you have other plans than drinking at night and sleeping at day-time, this hostel is not made for you. It is placed above a Pub and especially on saterdays the music is so loud that sleeping is impossible without falling out bed due to the bass. |
