"Location is phenomenal!"

"Good hostel. Each bed has plugs, light and a ledge which was nice to use. No curtains. Downfall would be no communal showers so although there was a shower in the room you might have to wait for others in the room. There were two additional toilets downstairs. Kitchen was nice. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Walkable to almost everything. Upstairs rooms are probably quieter at night."

"The check in process was seamless, the rooms were very clean and they have a big chalkboard with activities you can sign up for. There was also no curfew which was a relief, especially for staying out late for St. Paddy’s weekend. Our bathroom looked recently updated as well, and the shower pressure was amazing! Great location right next to temple bar and public transit. I would definitely stay here again!"

"It was a great stay! Very convenient with buses to go from the airport and to the city center. The price is very good and the breakfast is complete with lots of choices. The only problem was that we could hear people party outside quite loudly, so I wouldn't recommend to anyo e having trouble sleeping! Also, the mattresses were quite hard."

"Great facility for the price. "

"Excellent stay at the Leevin Hostel. Just stayed the one night, but the facilities there (kitchen, communal rooms, garden etc) are fantastic, so could have easily stayed longer. The venue is clean and well lit. The hallways are quirky, like an old country mansion which I quite liked. Staff are incredibly patient and helpful. Would highly recommend."

"Every was perfect But I paid 127 Canadians extra to Stockholm Hotel Apartment Sollentuna Itinerary #72874690841288 and you shouldn't give back that money. Thank you "

"I requested a twin bed because my companion could not sleep. I am 76 years old and not able to enjoy stairs this place a a lot of stairs as we were placed on the top floor. But anyway , it’s over and still grateful to have a place for us."

"Very convenient for exploring Dublin. Get what you expect from a hostel, 24/7 front desk which is good. Only small issue is rooms at the rear of the hostel are a bit of a trek to get to and back onto a nightclub, fine if you're in the club until closing which we ended up doing both nights."

"Utter disaster. Arrived at hostel to be told that it was under renovation and no room was available. Simply not good enough from the hostel and Hotels.com. "

"It was very special staying on campus of campus and having breakfast right there every day."

"Lovely staff, great location, great facilities. Good locker space. Comfortable beds. You do get woken up by a train going past the window."

"Big kitchen and sitting room facilities with free Netflix, etc. Wi-Fi not strong in some rooms. Building is generally old, but rooms are clean. Cery nice staff."

"Absolutely loved this place. Clean and convenient. Front desk was excellent and I will be staying here again when I return. "

Great stay!

"We had a lovely stay. Spent the weekend in Dublin for a dancing competition and wanted somewhere central to stay. The hotel was a great base ro explore the city. Lovely vibe to it. Although it was a busy hotel there was little noise. The service was amazing, especially from Ken the Concierge. He was great at pointing us in the right direction, booking taxi's and just generally went above and beyond. We would definitely stay here again!!"

5/5 Excellent

"I stayed here at the end of my vacation before I flew home out of Dublin airport. It was a good decision! The hotel is within walking distance (or a short shuttle ride) of all the terminals. The only reason I gave the property 3 stars for the "area around the property" is because it's right next to the airport and not much else. But everything else was great. Friendly and attentive staff; fast check-in; even some good food at the restaurant. I also recommend upgrading to a suite if one is available and you can afford it. Ours had a huge bedroom, had two bathrooms, a hallway and a huge living room with leather couches. That could be a real perk for a larger group or family tired at the end of a trip!"
