20 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Perfect location and comfy beds

Disliked: Breakfast is not included and they don't serve dinner or lunch (the closest convenience store is more than 30 minutes away). We booked a double room and got a four beds one instead. It's ok for us, but this happened too the last time we went there, so I guess they don't have double rooms.

11 August 2010 Ines would recommend this property

Liked: great locations just next to the round tower!

Disliked: Its quite expensive for a hostel since there is not even breakfast included. The internet is expensive (1€ for 30 min) and slow, with slow comuters (internet in hostels is usually for free). The bed linen only consisted of a pillowcase and two bed sheets.

Liked: This place is clean, nice and quiet, if you want relax, you have a beautiful view behind the hostel, and you just need 10 minutes on walk to begining the different walk in wiclows national park. Any way just very nice place.

10 September 2009 Rebecca would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel is in a beautiful location, its clean and comfy and the showers are hot. But...they have wifi available but not for use, you have to pay 1 euro for 15 min instead on computers in reception, considering the price you pay for the hostel, i thought that was a bit rough. And its one of those 'push the button showers' that only lasts about 6 seconds, very annoying. Otherwise its clean and adequate. Oh yeah, the pub in Laragh has free wifi and great food. Its the pub past the small convenience store, not the restaurante across from it. And take cash with you as there are no ATMs.

12 February 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was very close to the hills, with great kitchen facilities and nice and quiet (but I was there in the middle of the week in february, so the lowest of the low season). One should really try to cook here if possible, though because the meals seem pretty basic for the prices they are charging.
