Jacobs Inn Hostel, Dublin

The vibe and I watched a life band

Checking out

You get what you pay for. Keeping that in mind, I thought this place was excellent. I stayed in a capsule dorm. Clean rooms and bathrooms, comfortable and clean beds, good wifi, nice common area and decent breakfast. Great location very close to city centre.

Considering the price - nothing.

Clean and friendly and warm

Great location, big lockers for storage, comfy beds and curtains for privacy.

The receptionist were kinda rude and not helpful - they basically didn't share any information about check out, breakfast, activities etc. The wifi was also a bit slow.

Breakfast was great, staff very friendly. Nice atmosphere.

Rooms were too hot in the evenings because the hearing was in full blast and we couldn't turn it off. Had to open windows whichnoet it lots of noise from outside - our window overlooked the back of the police station (which we thought was quite numerous and didn't mind this so much), and a train track…so that disturbed us a bit.

8/10 quiet at night

No kitchen to bring and cook your own food

Clean and chilled place. Staff lovely. Stayed for 1 night in a female only dorm it wasn’t full but other ladies seemed respectful of noise. Took earplugs which helped. Breakfast good value for money. Would recommend.

n/a

Stayed 12 bed dorm with pods. Comfortable bed. 2 light options. Charging point.. Privacy curtains, shelf, towel rail, and clothes bracket... Security locker and spacious showers room in dorm... Nice ambiance spacious reception area.. Chilled our bar... Touch key pad to access all area..

Buffet breakfast overpriced, especially hot food which was limited to 3 products with fried eggs and sausages overcooked...

It's close to the city. Rooms are clean.

No towels, unfortunately

location = great cleanliness = great the sleep pods were amazing. they provided privacy & comfortably. i like how they had assigned hooks in the room that went with your bed number too.

facilities = NO kitchen (only a microwave) staff = fine but not really seeming like they wanted to be there / help out

🥰🥰🥰🥰

Everything is excellent

The guesthouse has a relatively good location, close to public transportation, with plenty of shops around. The staff is well organized, and the room is spacious and comfortable.

The Wi-Fi signal was very poor in the other room and barely worked.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The location was quite close to the city center. Breakfast could be purchased for a reasonable price and the bar was also very nice, offering a wide range of drinks and a few snacks. Overall, a very good place for a fair price.

Our room was facing a very busy street and was close to railways. As trains passed by quite often until very late at night it was very hard to fall asleep. The walls are extremely thin - we could hear our neighbors as well as people passing by our room so it was often noisy. This place also lacks security - you get a piece of paper which includes your room number, code for the security door as well as code for your own room - basically a paper that includes all necessary information for someone to rob your room may you lose this paper.

Was a good experience.will come again.

All good

Great location. Very reasonable price for a couple of nights away. I was lucky to have quiet dormmates as well! Breakfast was well worth it for the price as well.

It was a nice lively place.

My bed wasn’t cleared and done up for the second night.

I like the chill areas and staff always ready to help. Breakfast is very good.

Maybe missing some kitchen appliances on the chilling area

The location is excellent, the bed is comfortable, and each bed has its own locker, which is very convenient for storing personal belongings. The bathrooms are reasonably clean — you can’t expect perfect cleanliness in a shared room with ten people. The staff is very kind and helpful. Overall, it’s a very good place for a short stay: well located, right next to the Garda station, and also very close to the Dublin Express pickup point.

The place is mostly frequented by young people, so you can’t expect complete silence. Guests are coming and going at all times, which creates a certain level of noise. That said, it’s nothing that completely takes away from the experience — you just need to be aware of this before booking.

Everything

Only allowed stay 10 nights

It was clean, the staff was helpful, and the breakfast was quite good.

The beds were too small, especially the length of them.

The lack of a kitchen for guests use to prepare food

Good vibes and friendly staff

That there no kitchen available to be used by guests to cook their own food,

Very neat

The team is very inclusive and caring and will guide you with things to do around Dublin. Lot of activities are recommended by the front desk, Wi-Fi is great and check in and check out is seamless and smooth.

This is not the best neighbourhood so might be a little stretchy for a solo female traveller if you scare easily enough. My uber driver described the neighbourhood as interesting with lot of drinks, homeless and addicts on the street adding to the intrigue of the neighbourhood.

All was well. Staff were great. Professional and receptive to needs based requests

Nothing

Location is in the centre and really walkable. Everythings clean, pods have enough privacy. Love the bar under.

Luggage storage could be cheaper.

• Fantastic central location : near O’Connell Street, the bustling heart of Dublin city centre. Everything is super walkable: shops, restaurants, pubs,and major sights are just minutes away. • The airport bus stop is within easy walking distance :made getting to/from the airport hassle free! • The entire place is very clean and well-equipped overall. • Each bed comes with : plug/power outlet, shelf, reading light • Beds feel spacious, not cramped at all, with good privacy (curtains/pods make a big difference). • Personal lockers : easily fit carry-on suitcases or large backpacks. • For such a prime spot in the city centre, the price is an absolute bargain. incredible value for money!

At first, I noticed some noise: people walking/talking in the hallway, doors opening/closing, and a bit of street noise from outside. It bothered me a little but I got used to it and it didn’t affect my sleep.

4pax dorm had own Bathroom and Shower Excellent value @last Even hostels in Dublin have had extortionate prices this past 3 years.

Surrounding Area quite run down

The location was great, there were many stores and cafés nearby. The bar/hangout space was really nice, and I sat there a lot. The pod was very comfortable, and had enough space. Also, it was good that there was a light indicating if the bathroom was occupied. The other questes in my room made my trip, I met many amazing people. <3 Overall my experi

I am used to other countries, so maybe this was a culture shock, but I think the customer service could've been better: everyone was quite friendly, but there was not always someone available, and they did not greet you when you got in or say thank you in the reception or in the bar. The breakfast was decent, but not worth the 12€. The items could be covered somehow, so that cheese, hummus and bread would not dry out and warm up so much. I was not happy with the cleanliness of the bathrooms: there were no hand towels, there was dust on the floor, and the shower drain got clogged multiple times. I faced some inconveniences: the pod could use an additional shelf in my opinion. There were not many outlets to charge your phone/laptop downstairs, which would be nice since many people are working and hanging out in there.

The location was good and the pods in the shared rooms are good for privacy and comfort.

In the shared rooms there is only one bathroom, the wait was too long so I just used the shared womens bathroom

the location and the staff when I realized I left my data socket, I contacted the property and the reaction from staff was quick and they found it and kept it for me to come back to take it 6 hours later of my stay!

hygienic

clean warm

no kitchen!

The breakfast was not included But the location was really good, the staff, the cleaning

The room was cold and bed was not soft

Nice hostel in a great location.

Staff were lovely

the showers turned off every 30 seconds which was annoying

Great location, clean pods, and the bathroom being inside shared rooms was great. The fact that they have a live band and bar is a nice plus.

The luggage storage was expensive as it charges a euro for every extra hour. The live music was quite loud and wasn't to my taste.

Interior design is nice, love the restaurant area.

Long stairs to the rooms and many doors to go through. Rooms only have one toilet for 12 people, which may create inconvenience when sharing. Chillout room is difficult to find and lack basic amenities (e.g. water source) and too dark.

Convenient location for those traveling. Tram and bus stops are nearby. The train and bus stations are also nearby.

Great location.

Location and cost

Staff wasn’t friendliest people also extra charge for bag storage and basic items like towels

Very comfortable pods. Plenty of space downstairs to hang out.

No kitchen, just a microwave in a room but nothing else.

Modern and clean

The capsules were great, much quieter than your normal bunkbed

Charging to keep your bag there before you check in is disgraceful. Never had that in hundreds of stays elsewhere. Should just have a safe room like everywhere else

It's what you would expect from shared rooms. It was okay, the price was just

Very central location. The bar downstairs was nice and the sleeping pods were comfy and private. Lockers were roomy and everything was clean. Very good value for money.

The rooms were a bit small, but you probably won't spend much time there anyways. Only kettle and microwave so you will be eating out alot.

Rooms were excellent

Breakfast could have done with bacon and beans

Great location in the center of Dublin, comfortable rooms with big beds, and easy-to-use lockers. A lot of choice for breakfast, a great deal for the price.

There were no chairs in the room; it would be convenient to have some. No hairdryer in the room, need to ask in the reception and leave a passport as a deposit. Towels for an additional price.

Great location, every important thing is close to the hostel.

The only complain is my roommates didn't speak proper English but that's the least you can worry about :)

Staff and location and facilities were awesome

People that were in my room. From 6 people during night, anytime one was awake and come and go.. alots of noise and I didn't have good sleep at all. Mostly drunk people came during night with alots of noises.
