Good hostel in great location
What I liked about this hostel: no noise, clean room, nice private bathroom, brilliant location really close to O´Connell Street, Trinity College and dart station.
What I disliked: the cleaner left the windows open even though if was freezing outside so when we came back to our room it was really cold and the heater only worked for couple of hours in the evening. They charge 1e rent or towels which is fine, but they charge you for 5 euros and then return the extra four when you check-out and return the towel - expect that we checked out really early in the morning and there was no-one in reception (they were probably sleeping in backroom?) so we didn´t get our guarentee money back.
Unique Quality: Location is unbeatable.

Where to stay in Dublin??
We'll be spending a Saturday night (mid Feb) in Dublin at the beginning of our journey. It sounds like the Temple Bar area is where we want to be. I would love anything within walking distance of The Guinness Factory or Dublin Castle. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! Waterloo looks nice...but location ok?
Re: Where to stay in Dublin??
Bloom Hotel is in Temple bar, good but ask for a higher floor, the disco is quite noisy, let alone on Sat evening
Re: Where to stay in Dublin??
We stayed at the Ashling hotel wich is part of the Best Western group situated near a railway station,a tramstation and a busstop and walking distance to the Guinness brewery and a 5 minutes ride by tram to the center. It' s good hotel with very fair prices.
Re: Where to stay in Dublin??
The area around the Guiness factory is actually quite a bad area, although I'm not sure Americans realize this. Globetrotters is nice because it's near O'Connell street and close to the bus station and tram (luas) so you can take the luas to those places for less than 2 quid.
Jury's Inn is always lovely, although not sure what your price range is. It would be fairly near the castle. I've stayed at Kinlay house before, near Christ Church Cathedral, and was unimpressed. Temple Bar is pretty overpriced and caters to tourists who don't know any better, but if you're young and like to party Gogarty's might work for you.
Re: Where to stay in Dublin??
What area would you recommend if we want to get out of the tourist trap? We want good pubs and easy access to the train as we'll be taking it to Galway the next day
Re: Where to stay in Dublin??
If you´re on budget (= not looking for luxury) I can recommend Abigails hostel which is in Temple bar area, but still quiet as there are no bars on the same street. The castle is very close, just a few minutes walk and the Guinness factory walk took about 20 minutes (we did get lost a bit on the way..)
Re: Where to stay in Dublin??
you are really not going to be able to walk to the train, at least not happily with luggage, so it does not much matter how close you stay. The closer you get to Heuston station, the seedier the neighborhood. So you might as well stay somewhere nice if you have to take the bus anyway. The blue airport buses can take you there, and often the bus driver won't even charge you for that short of a distance.
