All good, thanks
2-night trip

6/10

My family stayed there for a night before flying back to America. This is not a hotel for a family to rest. It is full of young people and they are noisy all night. I would have gotten more sleep laying on the road by the airport. You also have to pay for a towel. I’m sure it has its place but this was a bad choice by me for what we needed.

8/10

This is a great place to stay for a younger crowd. We were looking for somewhere cheap so it was perfect. However, it is better suited for a young traveler wanting to meet new people and have entertainment in the evening.

Generator offered a fun bar and restaurant, that was busy and entertaining. The property was fairly well taken care of, though the busy nature caused some mess.
1-night trip

4/10

They try to squeeze money out of you in every possible way (towels, hair dryer). Rooms are cold with no working radiator. Floor was dirty. Absolutely no cooking facilities and food not allowed in rooms. Security act like cops and wouldn’t let our friends in on NYE. However, beds were comfortable and the staff friendly.

Nice Area, very convinient location.

10/10

I stayed in a 6 bunk hostel room. Accommodation was average but the main bar and eating area were good , as was the breakfast. Neat location really, with good access by tram and trendy restaurants and cinema over the road. As with most things in Dublin, this seemed rather expensive to me - about double compared to Madrid and Barcelona. Common areas didn’t have much seating and it wasn’t somewhere to snooze.
