They took money from a lost wallet. It came back to me with zero money

Great location, but I was not a huge fan of the fact that you can hear the club from our room, and you were not allowed to bring food into the hostel. Definitely not great for long term lodging, more of a place for young people to party.

One of the lower priced hostels around. Good staff and clean. Very good location. Nicely done aesthetics in lobby and bar. Fancy!!

Pros: two chargers in bed. Big locker. 24/7 staff

Cons: absolutely no outside food or drink not even a Diet Coke in a bottle. I get they want money at bar but a lot of hostels with bars and food have a tiny kitchen area or let u have outside drinks if it’s just a bottle of something

If you're looking for an affordable city break in Dublin without luxuries then the generator is a great place to stay. Food and drink was lovely and reasonably priced. There is a tram stop that is just a 2 minute walk from the hostel, and gets you to the centre or train station in 15 minutes. We had a group of 5 and had a room all to ourselves with our own bathroom. Normally I'm not picky when it comes to where I'm sleeping, but there was only one pillow which was incredibly flat and just felt like I was sleeping without one- if the hostel had offered a rent service to pay for an extra pillow this is definitely something I would have invested in.
The main complaint for the hostel was that while we were there, there was a school trip with a large group of teenagers. Despite the hostel saying no minors in the bar after 9, there were big groups of under 18 year olds in the bar area which isn't really the atmosphere you are wanting. Also, from around 11pm-1am, they were consistently running up and down the corridors, knocking on doors and screaming at each other. I get that they have to stay somewhere, but I don't think a party hostel is the place for them. Overall, the generator did what we needed from a stay; it was clean, had great amenities and offered us a place to sleep that was convenient for getting around the city.

It’s loud as hell here. People singing at the top of their lungs until 2 am. People talking in the hallway and you can hear everything. I asked the staff if it was always that bad and they said it wasn’t. The next night it was just as loud. If you’re in your early 20’s this might be a good place to stay and party, but for everyone else I’d avoid it. If you’re into listening to kids puke their guts out while you’re brushing your teeth this might be a great spot.

No food in the rooms which wasn’t told to me until I walked in with food.

Great location and close to everything but you’re not going to sleep great

This place is better than the average score would indicate. Has everything a hostel should have. Great location, big bar and social area, and spacious rooms with comfortable bunks and a bathroom. In addition, the breakfast looked good for the price, the front desk was very helpful, and there’s always big energy when you come back from a day exploring the city. Some great pubs and breakfast spots within easy walking distance and you must have a pint or two at The Cobblestone!

Un endroit à éviter.
Une réservation en ligne pour 6 personnes et nous nous retrouvons séparés dans différentes chambres car ils n'avaient pas enregistré notre commande, et devoir ensuite changer de chambre pour le 2ème jour, en payant supplémentairement les boxs pour garder nos affaires.
Un management incompétent, avec aucune complaisance client.

Affordable hostel. It's generally pretty loud so if you're looking for something quieter it may not be your place.

Das bisher schlechteste Generator in dem ich war. Schlechte Luft im Zimmer, viel zu warm, Badezimmer nicht sehr sauber, in die Jahre gekommen. Äußerst schade, wenn man bedenkt dass die Kette sonst einen echt hohen Standard für Hostelverhältnisse bietet.

Shocked when I heard staff offerers freebies for 5 star review on Google! Obviously that place not deserves even 3 stars. Black mold on walls and smelling like dirty toilet at most part of the hostel. My room was super overpriced for the poor quality. I heard from another person staying that he saw people doing drugs here on a regular basis. STAY AWAY! WASTE OF MONEY.

Una de mis mejores experiencias en un hostel. Tuve la suerte de que en el momento en el que me quedé a dormir no había mucha gente en la habitación que me tocó. Los baños son amplios y las camas son cómodas.

This place is a marvellous example of what a hostel should be. Simple and effective, doing exactly what you need. It's a brilliant location.
Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was good. Breakfast was fine.

He estado una sola noche. Pero he de decir que la ubicación perfecta. Pero sobre todo la GENTE QUE LO ATIENDE. Han sido encantadores y súper profesionales. Les pregunté por habiciones sólo femeninas, y aunque no hay y son mixtas..., ellos nos fueron ubicando sólo chicas en una habitación. Por lo que la estancia ha sido muy tranquila.
El baño muy limpio. No funcionaba el agua caliente, pero para un imprevisto y una estancia rápida no se puede pedir más.
GRACIAS.

הוסטל בעיר דבלין, כרבע שעה עשרים דק׳ הליכה ממרכז העיר, החדר יחסית גדול ומרווח, השירותים והמקלחת לא נמצאים בחדר ולפעמים גם לא באותה קומה, בסדר בשביל לשים את הראש

Good place for St Patricks celebrations.
Megan and Augustina (Agos) took good care of me.
Room only slightly off. Needed a bit of cleaning. No soap in bathroom. But all in all, thumbs up.

Loved this place, loved the staff, the guy who checked us in was absolutely hilarious, very very helpful, full of energy at 12 o’clock at night, he was lovely and I can’t thank them enough and really everything was lovely but yeah i think they should fix the toilet flush of room 108 ????

Wir haben ein 4 Bett Zimmer für ein verlängertes Wochenende gebucht, vor Ort gibt es Handtücher gegen Aufpreis von 4€ pro Stück, das Zimmer war dreckig und die Ausstattung rudimentär. Alle Aktivitäten wie z.B. Shuffle Board oder Billard ebenfalls nur gegen Leihgebühr. 3 Nächte für 1900€ bei der Gegenleistung sind schon eine pure Frechheit!

Das Hostel nimmt offiziell Schulklassen mit Minderjährigen Schülern auf, erlaubt diesen aber nicht die common area zu nutzen oder an den Abendaktivitäten teilzunehmen. Es ist nicht erlaubt Essen oder Trinken mit auf die Zimmer zu nehmen, damit auf das Hauseigene Restaurant zurückgegriffen wird ????. Die Security geht mit den Minderjährigen respektlos um und kontaktiert bei Vorfällen nicht die Aufsichtspersonen. Schüler wurden ohne unser Beisein beschimpft. Die Frühstückszeiten sind sehr früh und knapp gehalten und es gibt jeden Tag das Gleiche. Die Lage und Ausstattung vom Hostel ist gut, aber mit einer Schulklasse würde ich aufgrund der Vorfälle nicht nochmal hier her fahren. Alle anderen Gäste müssen sich auch darauf einstellen, dass immer 5-6 Schulklassen aus verschiedenen Ländern gleichzeitig hier untergebracht sind und es in den Zimmern und auf den Gängen sehr laut werden kann.

Stayed in a 6 bed women’s dorm. Room was below average. No curtains on the beds, little privacy. Power outlets had no usb ports. Room was very hot unless windows open. Bathroom was not great. Mold on the ceilings, sinks are too small. Location was ok, about 20 min walk from Temple Bar area. Too pricey for what you get. Staff were kind and helpful.

Me and 4 of my friends stayed here and it was 10 times better than we expected! We’d never stayed in a hostel before so weren’t sure what to expect but this by far is the best place we’ve ever stayed at! The room was clean, the beds all had their own plugs and were so comfortable like a cloud, in fact I didn’t want to get out of it so for a small price of £10 (£2.50 each) we got late check out at 1pm! The drink prices were so cheap, the atmosphere was unmatched, staff were super friendly and the location was great. Could not recommend this place highly enough!
