I'm poor at speaking English. So,I asked same things many times to staff there ,but they taught me so carefully, and even took care after that. All staff were very kind.

Gardiner House Hostel had a mistake in our registration on their end, and we ended up having to pay an extra 75 euro because of their glitch on their end - there was no effort on their end to comp the difference even though it was their mistake. The main eating area was sticky and not super clean, and many of the hallways were rather rundown and gross. My room had been recently renovated, so it was clean and beautiful, but smelled strongly of paint fumes the entire time we were there. There was loud music playing in the hallway at all times, and at least in my room, the main overhead light stayed on all night and the light switch didn't work to turn it off. The staff was friendly and kind, but in all honesty, the hostel was kinda like they put lipstick on a pig. Not a great stay!

It was a 15 minute walk from the nearest LUAS stop, which is the only mode of transportation to my workplace. Apart from that, everything else met my expectations

Convenient if they have a good price offering. Breakfast is pretty basic with no protein offering. Rooms, beds and linen are clean

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.

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.

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).

I stayed at the hostel for 13 days. The atmosphere is serene, and the staff are exceedingly attentive and kind. The breakfast is marvellous! The bathrooms are always impeccably clean, thanks to a regular cleaning routine. I felt very welcomed, as there are many Brazilians working there, which made me feel even more at ease. I most certainly recommend it!

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!
