auberge à l'ambiance chaleureuse avec du personnel à l'accueil très sympathique ( comme le sont tous les irlandais ou irlandaise que nous avons rencontré pendant notre séjour de 10 js ). Petit déjeuner copieux et salle très spacieuse.

Nice hostel, staff very friendly and Nice. Located close to the City Centre (5 minutes walk), the hours are very flexible (we and you out at the time to be). Satisfactory breakfast, only small flat, no heating nor hot water, for 4 nights it problem.
By Nathalie | The 10-31-2011
Comfortable hostel, smiling and very nice staff. The breakfast is very varied! Finally, it is located close to downtown!
By Samira | The 09-30-2011
The rooms on the street are badly isolated and therefore we hear all the noises of the street. Toilets and bathrooms are in rooms and often (in two different rooms in which I have lodged in all cases) there are concerns of plumbing and ventilation, which is that there is in the toilets and rooms a musty smell, of dirty water. However breakfast is satisfactory, well placed and not so terrible that hostel. Part two negative remarks I made, the hostel is rather pleasant!
By Babou | The 09-16-2011
very good hostel, located in 3minutes walk from good home and centre place pleasant to meetings during the week 10euros house dormitory with breakfast included, good quality-price ratio
By aurelia | The 09-01-2011
Comfortable, though nothing too fancy. Easy to get in and out of. The atmosphere was alright goal was pretty much just a room at reception where you could sit. Not bad overall though. Clean, linens provided.
By Kelley | The 09-01-2011
Hostel a little noisy, comfort and the equipment are summary but correct for the price, satisfactory hygiene.
By Frédéric | The 08-25-2011
Very good quality/price ratio, very well located in Dublin, easy of access. The household was done every day, the breakfast was correct. A flat however, bathroom for 20 persons, it is a little limit. Some smells of moisture...
By Pauline | The 08-21-2011
Home really very nice. The hostel is very well located in Dublin, easy of access from the airport, dublinbus just filed us in the face.
Moreover, they are really arrangeant to change reservations and also financially very accessible.
They accept youth groups (12/15 years) with which they are adorable.

By Ana | The 06-24-2011
Damage: the wet room, renovation of the buildings obsolete (touchups paint and joints in the bathroom, electricity), not decision-making power other than that intended for the razor to recharge laptops unless they have an adapter) however very owls home and staff availability! Ideal location for outings and take the 'express' bus to the airport.
By christelle | The 06-23-2011
Good home sympathetic atmosphere. Damage that there have not a small place to park the bike...
By Richard | The 05-21-2011
Hostel very clean but smells musty smell in the bathroom of the dormitory very good home not too far from the pubs
By anne marie | The 05-17-2011
Nice hostel, very good home, the city centre is not far at all. Very good price/quality ratio.
By ludivine | The 05-03-2011
Very nice home, aging (a problem of musty smell in the bathroom of the dormitory). The correct sheets, one of the more dubious carpet clean.
Two nights very disturbed by many Cree in the corridors or the undesired "bangs" at the door of our dormitory.
Book for young people who wish to make the day very late exclusively....
By Amélie | The 04-30-2011

By Simon | The 03-23-2011
I spent a night, breakfast a little shabby, no hot water, too expensive for a single bed!
By camille | The 03-13-2011
We were a group of 6personnes and we had 3nuits at Abraham House. Unfortunately, we found that hygiene was not at the top (indeed, our dormitory has not been cleaned of our stay) and the vents are not numerous (convicted Windows, only one but it was closed when it arrived)...
We are happy our stay but the hygiene and ventilation is damn improve...
