Great stay!
Liked: I stayed in the 4 bedroom mixed pods. The pods were very nice - they had the private light with the nightlight option, a curtain, a shelf, plugs, and a towel rod and hooks. They also had the beds made which was very nice since many hostels don’t do that. The room was clean, as well as the bathroom.
Disliked: They charge for a towel. Though this isn’t uncommon I of course prefer when hostels include one. Otherwise, not much negative to mention. As a woman, I like when they don’t place old men in mixed dorms with younger females, but in the end it’s on me for choosing the mixed option.

Relaxed stay, good price/quality
Liked: This is a perfect stay with friends or collegeagues, since everyone has its own bed. The pods feel as your own little space and provide some privacy. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. It was nice that you could rent towels. The hostel felt welcoming and relaxed. The (bath)rooms were clean.
Disliked: The room was quite warm, although it was extraordinary sunny when we stayed in dublin. The room did have a ventilator which helped, but the windows could only open a little bit. The room was small, which does not matter if youre only staying to sleep. Beds could be small if youre >1.80m.

Comfortable stay in Dublin
Liked: The cleanliness of the room I stayed was impressive, and I felt very comfortable throughout my stay. The pod-style beds were great - cozy and offering a nice level of privacy. The staff were also friendly and welcoming, always ready to assist with any questions or needs. Overall, it was a pleasant and comfortable experience.
Disliked: There wasn’t a standard power outlet in each pod or in the bathroom, which made charging certain devices a bit inconvenient. The bed might also be too short for taller guests—I’m 158 cm, and it was just barely long enough for me. Additionally, the disabled toilet on the ground floor was broken and didn’t flush properly during my stay.When I arrived and asked about breakfast, the staff at the café didn’t mention that it was ending in five minutes until after I had paid, which was frustrating. Considering the price, breakfast felt quite expensive and wasn’t worth the cost. Also, even though I chose the option without breakfast when booking, I was automatically charged for it, which I didn’t expect.

Handy
Liked: The location is great, just a few steps from the Bus station and the LUAS stop, and a couple of minutes' walk to the Liffey.The pod arrangement is great, allowing for a decent level of privacy, and even a tall guy like me (6'3) could comfortably sit up straight in the pod without cracking my head against the ceiling.The selection and quantity of food at breakfast is great.
Disliked: The beds could be a little bit more comfortable, an extra one or two inches on the mattresses would make all the difference and there would still be plenty of headroom for most people.
