24 February 2011 Jack would recommend this property

Liked: Close to metro station and supermarket. Also met some great people there and the staff were very helpful.

Disliked: €20 deposit for the key seems a bit steep especially as you have to leave it behind every time you go out. But as you get it back anyway it's only a minor point really.

Liked: Staff is very nice and helpful, I feel safe, they provide locker which is such a great idea, every hostels should have that!

Disliked: 1-I didn't like that they fold my linen, I found othen women hair on my sheet. They don't wash them that just move the sheet...which is unecessary. 2- I think 3 euros for a load of laundry and 3 more for dryer is a little expensive...and 1 euro for soap!

27 December 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It's comfortably clean and very safe. They emphasize on consideration for other travellers so travellers aren't allowed to make too much noise past certain time. Definitely a good place to stay at if you're an early sleeper or lone female traveller.

Disliked: The beds are a little low, making it extremely uncomfortable to sit on the bed at times. Furthermore, the rooms get a little too cold at night in the winter. The heating services need to be improved.

02 December 2010

Liked: I like the location.,

Disliked: 1. the kitchen is not fully-fledged enough. 2. atmosphere is average at best. Not that many people actually cook and hang around at the hostel. not quite easy to meet people. 3. staff a bit disorganized. they woke me up one morning and asked me to move rooms randomly so that they can clean rooms? was ridiculous. 4. staff don't really speak English very well. 5. they have credit card charges. 6. Rooms have mosquitoes - I literally spent an hour every day killing mosquitoes in my room before I went to bed.

26 October 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: it was very clean and the staff was friendly.

Disliked: they would go into your room when you left and remove bottles from your room, i felt like that was a little bit of invasion of privacy. we never actually drank the bottles in the room so they should have never been taken from us. we got them back every morning but it is just a little too much.

19 October 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The staff was absolutely fantastic! We had so much there, they were helpful, friendly.

Disliked: One of the staff members is the fun police who works night shift. Don't piss him off in fact it's better not to talk if you are coming home late, and be damn sure not to ask for a guitar at 5 in the AM, especially if you want to sing irish songs. He threatened to call the police on us three times and ended up sitting outside our door and told us if we closed our door he would call the police. The staff is great except this guy.
