Smithfield Square Smithfield, Dublin, D7, Ireland
Experience our hostel in Dublin city center, with easy access to Dublin airport and Temple Bar. You'll find Generator Dublin in the hip Smithfield neighborhood; adjacent to the Jameson Distillery and just a short walk from Temple Bar. Our Dublin hotel features open social spaces and is equipped with a café/restaurant and a bar on-site. With its reclaimed wood, exposed brickwork and original stonework, the place has an unruffled, industrial feel. From the Irish music belting out of the pubs in Temple Bar to the elegant splendor of Georgian terraces and squares, the city has many fascinating faces – every one of them ready to greet you with a welcoming smile and a pint of Guinness.

Pleasant
Good locations in the city centre area, a lot of food store and supermarket around. There is a bar at below but sound insulation for the room was good. The room is clean and consistent cleaning the bathroom. Nearby parking available and easy to get. Big luggage locker(no lock) under the bed which can fit 28 size.
The common area is not that friendly for people as got nothing provided except some tables and chairs. If need to refill water have to go to the bar tender also. All the things here needs to be paid as well as an ear plug. Need to improve on the security and safety in the property, a man that in our room was went into female toilets.
