2.0 star property
7.8 out of 10, Good, (1002)
"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."

The Dawson Hostel

7.8 out of 10, Good, (6)
"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."

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."

"This was a good choice for a 1 night stay. If staying several nights in Dublin, I would probably go elsewhere. The location was very good: a short walk to the Liffey River and touristy section of Dublin. The immediate Area of LIVStudent Dublin was less touristy and had some good pubs (Cobblestones has good live music, Walsh's Pub had great atmosphere, bartenders, and friendly locals) and restaurants (Lavanda, Wuff). The room was good size, clean, and the bed was comfortable. I was annoyed that...

"Very nice property overall with very helpful and friendly staff. We stayed in a 2-bedroom suite with kitchen and it was great to have a 2nd bedroom and bathroom for family traveling with us.The LUAS line right outside was great for getting to the city center, though it can get packed at times, especially if there is a concert next door.
