This hostel is amazing! I like everything! The area on the ground and first floor. The room for 4 people was clean with toilet and shower. The bed is comfortable. I like the buffet for breakfast, the best breakfast in the hostel that I’ve ever eaten! And there is a luggage room in the hostel, that’s very convenient for early checkin and late checkout.

They had someone available 23/7 to deal with any issues.....and there were none. The beds were warm and cozy and the windows opened for fresh air. The atmosphere was jovial and pleasant.

I stayed on my own in a 10 person pod, arrived late at night and was worried about waking the others up. Fortunately every pod has curtains so it didn't seem an issue. I rented a towel for 2,50eur. Used the locker underneath the bed which is included. Very friendly staff too. Everything very clean.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location for town, we got upgraded from a private twin room with a shared bathroom to a private 4 bed dorm with an en-suite. The room was clean, beds comfy and the staff were really friendly. The breakfast was good, just toast, cold meat, cheese, fruit, salad and soup but a great addition to the already cheap stay.

    Good value for money, in that it was cheap and right beside Connolly station. Clean, with a comfortable bed and warm water in the shower. There's a nice bar in the foyer area and they serve good food too. Overall, a good hostel if you're on a budget.

    Think youth hostel, dormitories, study rooms, multi cubicle showers and toilets, kitchen, laundry, helpful staff, cafe. Quiet safe clean rooms, solid enclosed bunks with a comfy mattress, shelf, light and charger inside the bunk and a curtain to for privacy. Also a locker/drawer under the bunk for stuff. Didn't hear any noise from any other guest during the night Staff friendly, helpful and efficient Nice area for cafe, old stained glass architecture, relaxed with other guests Outside garden for relaxing, chilled

    Best hostel I have ever stayed in. Really clean and comfortable. The bunk bed set up is brilliant - all feels very private and safe. It was quiet at night, I never had to queue for the showers and the lounge / dining and study rooms are excellent. It’s a short walk into town and right by a bus stop. Lots of nice places to eat and drink just minutes away.
