    Some extra security with a code lock door to the first floor, but it's reasonable considering the locaton (Temple Bar). Also, there was noisy outside till a late time, but again, it's because of the location in the Dublin City Centre.

    Everything is good for this money.

    1. The beds were terribly uncomfortable. 2. The curtains are sheer and let in light all night long. 3. The bathrooms and facility smell like vomit. 4. The walls are so thin, you hear everything inside and outside of your room. Between the noise, light, and uncomfortable beds, we did not get any sleep.

    1. Centrally located to the downtown area. 2. Clean enough.

    Location. Busy area, we were concerned about staying on a weekend based on other reviews but we had no problem sleeping at all, street noise was nowhere as bad as we expected. We had our own room, which was small but cozy and most importantly clean! Shared bathroom looked quite recently renovated and was clean. - no issues there at all.

    noisy from the street but that's because it's in the bar area. there is a microwave and a kettle for hot water; no glasses or utensils.

    central location; small room but with comfortable beds; clean; shared bathroom, but clean; on the floor there are two bathrooms and two toilets.

    Its not value against money because bed sheets needs to replace with new one and matris needs to be core comfortable because mostly are spring matris but spring are not comfortable after some time i feel pain in my back and third one is that there is no locker or cabnet for the guest and fourth one is that they charge for towel i have traveled 15 countries and i found this stupid thing to charge for a towel this is not a good way of bussiness

    I like location was good only

    I wouldn't recommend it for Solo female travelers at all ! Or anyone even No ventilation at all so EXTREMELY HOT during the summer as in 40° inside vs 28° outside. Keep in mind there is a pizza shop attached to it as well so it's a literal oven. No clear markings on where the hostel is situated, Then tried to call to ask where it may be and no response. No places to store valuables so I had to lock my stuff to my bed while I was gone during the day. Very friendly people however there was a language Barrier with the receptionist who couldn't speak proper English because I asked her if it's possible to change rooms to an all girls dorm cause I wasn't comfortable sleeping in a dorm full of middle aged dudes and she just dismissed me so i just sucked it up. No place to cook or eat meals. Microwave and kettle yes but what's the point if there is no clutlery or sink. I had to go over to the Pizza shop to sit down and eat meals cause there was nowhere to do so. Might as well spend an extra euro to be more comfortable and safe The night was awful! It was right next to a busy street and the whole night was honking, drunk people screaming and bottles being smashed. People also live in the guest rooms. Money wasted - one of the worst experiences of my life.

    Nice Location

    There was no windows in the room, poor ventilation. The door to the Apache fast food restaurant was always open making the whole place smelling like fast food and very very warm because of the kitchen.

    it was the worst hostel i ever entered. Dirt, stench and a lot of mess. The reception which should be present 24 hours a day is almost never present. Security is at a minimum in fact there are no lockers to store things and it is adjacent to the back of the pizzeria of the same name, in fact they stole my hat and shoes..

    there is not even 1 single positive thing

    Location was perfect, right in the heart of Temple district, brilliant, no hassle getting to bed after a long night out. Room was small but had bunk beds and space to get ready with a desk. Shared bathroom was right next door, not many rooms per floor so no hassle getting access to get showered in the morning. For a place to stay over night while down in Dublin for a drink this was perfect. Apache pizza connected to building, open to 4am and you get a discount.

    The windows need to be replaced to reduce noise levels. Too pricey for a small private room in a hostel. Has more than doubled in a few short years.

    warm friendly welcome, and I was allowed to check in early as my room was ready, I was also granted my special request of having a ground floor room and bottom bunk bed. This was truly appreciated

    They have no way for international customers to reach them. Would not recommend.

    Booked through Booking.com I screwed up my non refundable reservation for the wrong night. Realized it immediately and wanted to contact them to see if I could change to the correct night. I have a US phone # and was not going to make an international call from a roaming number. I sent 2 emails from booking site and 2 messages from their web site 'contact us' form over 2 days. It's been almost 20 days and nobody bothered to contact me. I had to forfeit my payment. I might be able to accept that, if they were not willing to accommodate my mistake. But the inability to easily reach someone to even ask questions about their policy, along with no response to email is unacceptable. Don't provide a means to contact, if you aren't going to respond to it. It's stupidly easy to set up a WhatsApp account. Many business provide that means for international customers to reach them. This place can't be bothered. Might be a really nice place. But since they don't care about international customers, I wouldn't suggest anyone take their chances with them.

    I can't say there is anything to like about the Apache hotel. I had an issue with my reservation and I had no way of reaching them except an international phone call I was not willing to make. So I was unable to stay there.
