    Painters and decorators disrupted the experiance a tad. general place - busy, hectic its a city!! should be expected i guess. City noise all night long - great if your 18 - 25 not for me. More a reflection on my tastes rather than Dublin i guess.

    Location to historic parts of city

    I reached the hostel at 9 pm, and the owner of the pizza shop handed me over my key. When I reached my dorm room, I was unable to figure out which bed was free. The place is located centrally, and it is just beside the temple bar area, which also means please embrace yourself for the noises at night.

    The place is located centrally.

    The price for ireland was very cheap, but it is not really the best hostel, that i see, little bit old something and its a Party Area and some people in the room, they had not so many Respect for the other people in the Rom (so loud in the night and let the door open/ but the Staff, Do what i can Do).

    There's a turbine or generator in the hostel buzzing all night long. Pillows and bed linen are pretty old and worn. Windows are not good and you hear everything from the street, which is normal because of the location. They were painting the hostel. Hope they paint the rooms ceilings too, as they look pretty dirty.

    Location Staff is very friendly

    The location was very noisy. We had zero interaction with staff - there was never anyone working at the desk. We only interacted with the pizza staff once to check in and that was it. The bed was uncomfrotable and the windows unglazed so it was both cold and noisy.

    The room and bathroom were fine. Nothing too awful or excellent to report, just basic hostel standard.

    Location - It was a shady area. When we were there, people are urinating near the hostel entrance, drunk people walking around the alley, and also a couple fighting just right in front of the hostel door. You can always hear people shouting at night from your room and it was freaking 4.00 in the morning. Facilities - There is no lift at the premise and unfortunately our power point is not working.

    If you have no other choice—the Apache counts as shelter.

    From the outset,the Apache experience is memorable. From a gate keeper smoking cigarettes to the fact that the bed has only a comforter which one highly doubts was washed before new guests arrived—there are a lot of Apache stories to share with friends who enjoy dark (and dirty!) humor. The Apache set a new standard for me-in terms of how I am willing to debase myself while traveling.

    I like sleeping under a roof so in that sense,the Apache was excellent. It did indeed have a roof. However, beyond that, one begins to question how they can charge more than 20 euros per night. The shower did have hot water. So that was something I appreciated. I also loved how it smelled of pizza because I really love pizza. The location is great.

    The walls are paper thin.... You can hear everything... Especially at night and in the early morning at 7am onwards.. The beds really need to be taken to the dump and new mattresses for each dorm as the springs are in an awful bad way.. I'd say the beds are ten years old or older.. Its hard to get to the top bunk as the stairs are uncomfortable, try to get a bottom bunk if possible.

    The girl from Mauritius was very nice, she's the cleaner, very friendly and informative. A great asset to the place. I liked the shower and toilet which was clean and there is a microwave, kettle and toaster on each floor. There's 30 percent off in the restaurant, not too bad.. The location is good, it's central to everything and there's a spar shop accross the road. I think it's the cheapest hostel in the city, it's value for money, if and only if your expectations are low.

    the Mattress was really old and uncomfortable. I could feel all the springs and the bunk beds are really old, it made sounds every time you or the person above or below move. it was really loud from the street.

    the hostal has a great location! and the staff was really friendly.

    Noisy (I know we at the city centre but it could have better windows), kind of messy and what we really didn’t like was that at the time of the check-out time, there wasn’t anyone available. We called, texted and waited for more than 20 minutes and finally we couldn’t leave our luggage at the reception and had to pay somewhere else to do it, very inconvenient.

    Nice staff, well located
