Unaware that my electoral ID was not classed as valid so had to seek help from Garda Station right beside us, even the officer on duty seemed annoyed as it has my face and name on this ID. No TV in room and areas for socialising in hostel closed too early not much of a nightlife etc which was disappointing. Expected more food variety and places to eat inside not takeaway which we couldn't even have in the room. All drinks also banned from having in the room, otherwise it was fine as long as you don't plan to have a night in and relax. Map at reception not worth a look at either as doesn't give much area information for close to you other than street names which was hard to read sober

A nice clean hostel, and good option for staying in Dublin. The pods were nice and the room was clean. The bathroom was very spacious. However, the water in the sinks and shower only ran for about 10-15 seconds. It made it excessively difficult to take a shower. You had to either hold the shower knob down, or press it literally every 5-10 seconds. The location of the hostel was ok, the area was a little dodgy. Definitely a lot of homeless wandering in that area. It did have very close train/tram stations. Pretty easy walk into the main parts of the city too. You also had to pay quite a bit for luggage storage on early arrival/late departure. I had to pay over 5 euros for about an hour and a half of storage. Majority of hostels I’ve stayed in have had free storage rooms. There were certainly some noisy crowds within the hostel, but thankfully my room was pretty quiet. Overall pretty solid hostel option for Dublin, definitely better than some of the others in the area.

The property is great. My issues were what one expects when going to a hostel, namely others snoring and keeping me awake. The front staff were incredibly helpful, helping me to book tours. Shout out to the gentleman who helped me book the Sheep Dog presentation. Fantastic. I really wish I had planned this trip better. I needed more time in Dublin. Latroupe has become my go to for my next trip.

This was my first time experiencing a Hostel. The property was clean. The staff was helpful. They even emailed me that I left my eyeglasses there. The one thing that made me uncomfortable was that they chose to place me, a woman traveling alone, in a room with two men. To be fair, they were great gentlemen. The only thing that drove me crazy was the snoring. It wasn’t the actual bunk mates. It was the thought process of not putting me in a room with at least one other woman or putting a woman in the room with me.

My first experience of a hostel. The whole place was clean and tidy. Buffet breakfast was quite limited. Bread, eggs, sausages and hash browns. No bacon, black pudding or white pudding (something that Ireland appears to be famous for). My only complaint comes with the people who were in my room. One of whom had set an alarm each morning and they either continued to sleep through it or had left their phone in the pod while they were in the toilet. Staff were very polite and very helpful when needed.
