I was placed in the Gallery Bed #3. It was directly beside the bathroom and the entrance. It was a "sleepless night" when I desperately needed some rest.

I stayed in a bunk bed private room for 2 people. The room was small but clean. The bathroom is shared with other guests although I seldom saw anyone during my 2 night stay. It is close to city center. It also provides simple Continental breakfast. Storing luggage will charge you eight euros. It was an ok stay.

Excellent location if you're planning on attending an event at Croke Park stadium. Other than that, Dublin city centre is reasonably walkable from there. Convenience store, pubs, and some Asian restaurants are a short walk away. As for the place itself, I think it's pretty top notch for a hostel. Shared facilities get cleaned regularly, so are most often in fairly decent condition.
