Excellent stay, very helpful staff
Max, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Lovely big room
Room was v big and clean and perfect location, was minutes from everything. Price is brilliant. Only thing was the lack of hot water even when following the instructions given; we managed given only the short stay but was a bit annoying. Not noisy at night at all.

Three adults stayed on 5 th floor. Luggage storage on main floor allowed us to leave suitcase and just take up the stairs overnight bag. Easy walk to downtown. Excellent modern room.

Dreadful
Truly dreadful from virtual check in to state of property. Worst place I've ever stayed in

Johannes, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

My stay was okay. I enjoy my time visiting Dublin because my stay is close to the city centre. What I dont like is how inconvenient that your check out time is 10 am and the cleaners are very busy cleaning the only dorm room at around 9. You are pressured to pack and leave and since the place is too tight, there's no other area to go but the dining area.

It would be nice if they told me I would be walking up four flights with my luggage.

Biggest mistake was to book in 15 beds room. Unable to sleep all night
GEORGES, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to sleep in Dublin for a night or two. Room was huge - there were 2 of us but it could have slept 6! It was about a 20 minute walk to the centre which was perfect for exploring and the price was excellent compared to other hotels. It was self-check-in so we didn't see any staff.

8/10 Very good

Ease to public transportation. The hostess English is choppy so communication was a bit difficult. It was a good stay overall. Neighborhood is a bit dirty but very convenient location. Our room access was easy , the hostess send direct and understandable instructions to gain access.

Stay at Clink or Generator
no staffing no wifi that i could find nowhere to charge my phone put on the top bunk of 3 tiers in a virtually empty bunkroom HOT AS HELL in the room even after adjusting the thermostat sketchy neighborhood
Ellen, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible. I felt very unsafe, the person on the bunk bed under me was touching himself and being very loud. It smelled bad, there was like 20 people. It was more of a homeless shelter then a hostel.
Cheyenne, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We had a double room in this hostel, it was ok. The only downside of the room was the lack of blinds, allowing a lot of light coming in from early in the morning, but since we spent o ly 1 night it hasn't been a major issue. The huge downside was the surrounding area. Dirty and generally unsafe. I wouldn't recommend it to girls or even couples. It should be fine for a group of lads, but you never know.
Davide Riccardo, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

KGT house was pretty ok. The beds were comfy answer wifi. They seemed pretty disorganized, and they didn't seem to know who I was when I got there from Expedia. It did feel secure. And I didn't have any problem with People there. It's just not a four or five star facility. The food was pretty meager for the nine euros And I found a full breakfast for only two euros more down the street. I'd still stay there again if it was just me, but not with kids.

There weren't any windows and it smelled. In the night it was very loud because there were drunk old people. We couldn't sleep.

Please they must buy duvet for customers .no blankets and its too cold during the night.all hostels around the city do have duvets .that was terrible

Comfortable bed. The hot water switch for shower was a long way from the shower and not easily discoverable. Coffee making facility looked good but there was no tea or coffee!

Not value for money, in humans conditions
It took me time just to get acess into the front entrance. The gents toilet blocked i couldn't shower and use the Toilet or bath room 🤔 🙄
Joao, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Felt Unsafe
The room was tired, with some holes in the walls and masking tape around the doors. It would have been fine for the price, HOWEVER... We were woken up at 11:50pm by a man knocking on the door asking for Amanda. We told him that there wasn't an Amanda in the room and he demanded that we open the door and show him our passports. We are two women and were in our pyjamas. The man did not identify himself so we refused (it is an unstaffed hotel so we had no reason to believe it was a staff member). He eventually went away after demanding multiple times (both to us and the next room). We were left very uncomfortable by the situation. I tried to ring the number on the booking but could not get through. I messaged and the hotel confirmed that the aggressive man had been a member of hotel staff!!
Sophie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Code didn't work for check in as I was emailed the wrong one.. managed to phone someone who gave me the correct one but if you arrived at night and didn't have a roaming package your stuffed. The room itself was fine but god awful hot no fan or AC to speak of can't open the windows because the extractor from the takeaway beneath just blasts directly into the room. For £100 for a private room isn't all that cheap I don't think but relatively cheap for Dublin. Only stayed hear because I was to leave at 4am for the airport probably wouldn't stay again but ultimately you get what you pay for

4/10 Fair

Questionable if sheets were cleaned between use, as there was a copious about of black lint on every bed, and multiple strands of hair everywhere on the sheets. In addition, there was NO HOT WATER, and we went in January. The instructions say to flip the switch for 15 mins for hot water, and hot water never came. Neighborhood is extremely walkable and tourist friendly for public transport, but there are also many other hotels in the area.
Tiffany, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not stay here.
This is probably the worst place I’ve ever stayed in. You can literally hear every foot step taken extremely loudly, the beds are load and squeak with every move, never mind any night time activities, and the bathroom fan is extremely loud. Avoid!

10/10 Exceptional

For a budget stay, this works. It was like pulling some teeth to get the info to get in to the room because the property owner sends the info like the very last minute. So if you don't have data or wifi you have to wait until after 1130am. When you're jet lag it's difficult to read all the instructions and rules in the room. It would have been nice to have the sign for the switch for the hot water. One of the room we stayed the switch for hot water was hidden so we had to figure it out. It

2/10 Poor

Brutal...could NOT even get inside the Building (had to wait for a pre-existing guest to return to the premises [with his take away lunch] and open the Front door for himself to gain entrance), after ringing the doorbell and knocking on the Front door for over 45 minutes!! NO staff members on the premises at all and there was NO "front desk" to check in at, even though the property states there is in the 'Confirmation' email that I received. My Guest and I were out a Room, I ended up booking in at another Hotel and he ended up driving back home to the very south of Ireland in Wexford! Absolutely NO/Zero compensation whatsoever (not even partial compensation)!! I would NOT even consider staying there ever again...NOT even if it was FREE!! Front door is a single man door which is NOT very well marked either, so very hard to spot unless you have your Google Maps handy! GOOD Luck if you decide to stay there!!! The Positive is it is handy to the core of the Dublin City and the Train....but there is a fairly steep hill (upwards) for 2 blocks to reach the Building. ***Plenty of well marked Hotels (down the hill and at more level ground), closer to the core of Dublin City, closer to the Trains, and closer to the River, than KGT House...where they actually have a 'Front Desk' with staff members onsite!!
