Honestly for the price I was impressed! It’s right in the middle of Dublin, the pod was surprisingly comfy. Only issue is the shared toilet shower combo, morning queues suck but yeah, I’ve already booked to stay again

Perfect stay

We loved this place , there was minor issues that can easily get fixed, like putting a lock on the pods that way the traveler can comfortably leave things there without having to worry about things getting stolen,also if you oversized person restroom is not big enough , installing small fans inside pods would help massively because the air coming from mirror is not enough , other than that restaurants across the river temple bar is 8min walk

My first hostel experience, about as good as you should expect from a hostel. The only thing is that they require your passport emailed to them ahead of time, and they don't accept it when you check in. Which feels super dumb. Just accept the passports at check in. It wasn't an issue for us because we saw the instruction and did it. But I watched several groups argue with the front desk dude. He said they lost $10,000 last year to false bookings, and that's why they require passports; which is fine, but why not accept them at the front desk? ! literally watched him have to refund almost a $1000 for various travelers because of it. In one weekend. So surely they're losing more than $10k a year for that weird stipulation. Everywhere accepts the passports at check in. Feels totally optional. Anyway, good experience though. They cleaned everyday, the bathrooms were good. The pods are temu plastic boxes and the usb thing didn't work on ours, but they had other charging spots. It might get a little hot, the "AC" is a computer fan in the pod. Pods don't lock btw, but we felt safe. Overall it was great.

Lovely stay, fun little space pods. But no games / towels provided so bring your own! Over all very comfortable and easy stay. They let us go in earlier than check in as we had an early flight, that was v good.

Great for the price

Best price for being in the city center. Nice and quiet, not really a hostel, no staff really present, but good if you're not looking for the party scene and want to be close to the best parts of Dublin. The pods give great privacy and are actually cozy.
