Everything! It was so much more than we were expecting. Beds were comfortable, the rooms had a lot of space (we were in a 10 beds room). All the facilities were clean all the time, and the staff were super, super helpful with everything! Even booking our trip to the Cliffs of Moher (absolute must). We’re definitely coming back :)

The infrastructure of the place is really nice, I stayed in a room with 6 beds, without bathroom. The rooms have a very nice kind of locker below the beds, which is quite spacious, and you can put a padlock to keep your stuff. The shared bathroom is really big, with many showers and toilettes available and always clean. The common areas were really nice, with a lot of games and good vibe to meet people. The last night we ended up in a group of 8people all solo travelers having beers together in a pub close by. Also the stop for the bus that takes you to the airport is really close, which is very convenient.

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.
