24 March 2011 Kerstin would recommend this property

Liked: The room was allright, nothing special, though. The included breakfast was a plus. Big kitchen, good location, clean and neat. Good value for your money.

Disliked: It's wasn't that friendly feeling like some hostels. Our food in the fridge was taken, I forgot my schampoo in the schower and it was gone when I remeberd it. Things like this are no big deal, but it bums you out a bit.

Liked: The showers were ok

Disliked: *The whole room smelt fusty and was difficult to sleep in *We were told we'd get an on suite bathroom but it was actually a shared bathroom right next to our room so you could hear everyone. *We were also told we'd get a TV in our room which we didn't get *The bed was lumpy *The room was tiny *The room wasn't clean I would stay away from this place next time.

Liked: Very good location - only 20 mins walk from the city centre. Rooms were clean. Not too many people in the hostel, which was a plus. Helpful staff. Breakfast not so rich, but nice.

Disliked: There was only a shower in the room, no toilet. For the second breakfast there was no bread left, so practically we could not eat anything for breakfast. As a whole the breakfast consists only of bread, cheese, butter and jam (could have been better if some ham or pepperoni were also available), but there is a nice coffee and milk.

Liked: Easy walk to city center, very close to St Stephen's Green. Friendly staff.

Disliked: The bathroom was awful. Cold showers with a button you need to keep pushing to keep the water flowing, the sink was the same. Also water from shower ran into bedroom because of dramatically slanted floors. Very uncomfortable bed.

Liked: Nothing. After 3 months of travelling throughout Europe this was the worst hostel we have stayed in. They double charged us for our accomodation, and it took alot to convince them of this, even with a confirmation number provided. We eventually got them to refund us back our money. The staff were incompetent. Even though you book a mixed dorm online, they only have single sex dorms, and stated that they are do not go by what you book online, and they just change the booking. When asked why this happened, we were told it was our fault for not emailing to repeat our preference.The toilet door in the female dorm didn't lock, and was very messy and untidy. There is a amoking area out the back right next to the female dorms and its where drunk men congregate (not very safe for an all girls dorm when you need to walk through this area to go to the bathroom if the one in your room in occupied)They state that breakfast is served at 8 but at 8:15 there was a room full of people waiting for breakfast and they ahdn't even started to put out the cereals, so if your in a hurry, eats elsewhere as they are not concerned about the 20 people waiting to eat and check out.The location is no where near the city centre, so if location is important, look around at other options.
