The kitchen staff were very friendly each morning. The area itself is rather noisy at night as windows needed to stay open to ventilate the rooms.

Suited the purpose of my stay
Suited the purpose of my stay, nice big building, check-in was easy.
My only gripe would be, it could be explained more that the address is UPPER Gardiner Street (I made the mistake of looking for it in Lower Gardiner St).

This place is like the Tardis: small on the outside, but big on the inside. I got lost for a brief moment because I wasn’t paying attention on how I got to my room. 😬

This is a very comfortable space with friendly staff. We had a two person room, and the beds were comfortable and bedding lovely. The breakfast is modest, but we weren’t really planning on it, so that’s fine.

Staff was amazing and helpful. Everything was clean and many helpful options to relax around. The only downside is the laundry which the dryer barely works. Best to take your clothes down the block for a couple Euro’s more. Overall an amazing experience. Would recommend!

As expected.
Had a 4 people dorm room. The bed was the worst I have slept in. One in the room snored all night (to be expected). Bathroom and showers clean.
