It was not at all what I expected; there were many people who were solo travelers and older. I was in a 6 bed mixed dorm and I was not comfortable. But, it was really nice. Everyone was super quiet and mindful of others privacy. I loved the karaoke night, and the bar in general.
On Saturday night, there was a rave . It went on beyond d midnight . It was loud, obnoxious and we could not sleep - the sound was loud and pounding. That was the nightmare I was envisioning. I wish there was a kitchen. But, the hill out room was really nice. It had a microwave so I could have my dinner peacefully.

I loved how clean the hostel was. The rooms were a bit stark, and bathrooms had no plugs for hair dryers. There were USB chargers in each pod, but they were very slow charging. The beds were comfortable, along with the duvets and pillows. Pulling the drapes on the pod made it very hot inside. Instead, I hung my towel on the curtain rod, which gave me privacy, and there was about 4 inches of airspace below for some air. The staff was really friendly and accommodating. The breakfast deal was good value, in my opinion, as everywhere else was almost double the price. The shower is meant to conserve water. Therefore, it only flows for 15 seconds at a time. There is a push knob and it's fine to use once you get the knack of it. The bathrooms are clean with soap, shampoo, and body wash. The towels are large and lush. I would stay again with no issues.
It was pricey for a hostel. But everything else was fine. A fridge would have been nice in the common room. That's it.

The room was safe and quiet (only women)
In front of the hostel was people who screamed at night. They were drunk or in some kind of drugs.

Good vibe, close to the city, plus a tram stop around the corner which is a bonus
Right next to a Garda Station so some dodgy characters hanging about, not really their fault but something to be aware of

The common areas are really nice! Lovely lighting and design. Pods themselves are OK, not the best or worst I've had somewhere in between. The location is solid, walkable to most destinations in Dublin!
The power outlet in my Pod didn't work, so I couldn't charge my devices. I told the front desk immediately and they had no remedy, I was told I would have to re-check in to a new pod the next day. They charge for you to leave your suitcases behind, which feels a little nickel-and-dimey, especially when that isn't the case in any other hostel/capsule hotel I've stayed in. No airflow/fan in the pods, which I imagine is miserable if it gets hot in the summer.

So much wrong with this place. Looks fancy and nice at first but it's really not! Shower barely worked, inside the sleeping "pods" is no air circulation whatsoever, so it just gets really hot, only usb plugs in the pods so no possibility to plug in anything else, like for example my medical device, luggage storage before check-in is crazy expensive, and much more. The prices for this dump are an audacity.
