general
Fot the budget conscious visiting Dublin, you won't find better priced or located accommodation in the city. The Dormitories are simple and clean but perfect for Groups and it is a very friendly hostel. There are "Themed" nights out throughout the week - organised by staff - and all guests get free internet and WiFi access throughout. It is open 24 hours so there is no curfew for those staying at late and if you want a good Hostel, this comes recommended. For Groups wishing to book more than 1 Bed, PLEASE BOOK 2/3 or 4 SINGLES and not a QUAD. You are allocated a SINGLE BED each. (GW 05/2011)
exterior
From the outside, this is a lovely red brick period Building. It's more in keeping with the exterior of a hotel than a hostel.
restaurant
As this is a hotel, there is no Restaurant as such, but there is a room where a cooked Breakfast Menu is offered (payable locally). There is a self catering kitchen for those looking to eat in and Lounge for relaxing in and watching TV, playing pool/table tennis and surfing on the internet.
