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).

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!

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.

2/10 Poor

Mold in the showers. They close access to the laundry room when the kitchen is closed but don't tell you that, and the laundry room sign says it's open all day. Also the dryers are terrible and will just stop working but still eat up your money ($3/90 minutes of electricity). Even the staff dryer took 2 hours to dry a small load and you have to sit there the whole time because the staff take your stuff out (they didn't take it out of the staff dryer - they took it out of the regular washer and I walked in 2 minutes before my time was supposed to be up) Gate code for parking changes every Tuesday but they don't tell you that, so you come back late Tuesday night not sure why it won't work and have to park in the alley while you run in and get the new code. Chapel 19 is stifling hot. Miserable. Gendered shower/toilet rooms but not sure why because each is a separate room with a door. But the men have a nice big walk-in shower for the bathroom that goes with Chapel 19 & 6. Women only get small showers. Also no shelves or anything to put your shower stuff on in the shower. No shelves or curtains in the dorms so very little privacy and no place to put your stuff. Don't hang your towel on the bed posts to dry - staff will remove them and they charge for towels. The breakfast is not what they advertise. Toast with 2 types of jam and 3 kinds of cereal. Stairs with torn carpet (trip hazard) This hostel is way too expensive for the quality it is.

6/10 Good

While I stayed in a private double room with ensuite on the top floor, this was still a hostel. My room overlooked the very noisy street at the front, and there were loud young people screaming down the hall. This did stop after 1030 pm. The room was very plain and clean, the bathroom institutional looking. Some fast takeout food joints nearby. Very close to coach stop for the airport. My bus, however, never came, likely stuck in a traffic incident. Overall, quite an expensive and stressful stay. Dublin accommodation is as expensive as London’s, with less variety of rates. I’m sure it’s a great hostel though for those who don’t mind them. Plus Taylor Swift was in town so that May account for a few things.

Cozy Comfort and Warm Hospitality
My first night in Dublin was spent at Gardiner House Hostel. Arriving late at the check-in counter, I was greeted warmly by the female staff. Her friendly demeanor immediately put me at ease, especially since it was my first visit to Ireland and I was unfamiliar with the country. The atmosphere of the hostel was welcoming, with clean and comfortable accommodations that exceeded my expectations for a budget-friendly stay. The common areas were well-maintained, providing opportunities to socialize with other guests or simply relax after a day of exploring the city. In addition to the friendly staff and cozy atmosphere, Gardiner House Hostel also offered convenient amenities such as free Wi-Fi and complimentary breakfast, adding value to my stay. Overall, my experience at Gardiner House Hostel was excellent. I would highly recommend it to fellow travelers looking for a welcoming and affordable place to stay in the city.
