Latroupe Jacobs Inn

Such a cool space with tons of security features. You need a code to get basically anywhere. The "board game night" was a lot less mediated than I thought it'd be. There were basically just a few games on a shelf and it was up to us to get anything started. Still, I met great people! Though this was my first hostel, I bet there are more social hostels out there. Not a problem though! The pod itself was roomy enough, and the two lighting options within were appreciated. The shower turning off every 15 seconds definitely discourages you from staying in there too long, but is pretty inconvenient. Overall, I would definitely return!

First good things and mostky what I look for in a hostel: The bed was ok. Bathroom clean. Nownthe problems? Chill out room was horrible. Smelled horrible and not clean, no paper towels/tissues, nothing. They charge for the luggage room if you arrive early and it is a good amount so I would suggest reserving a separate luggage storage place for that. The check in system is inefficient (yes, it is computers), when I checked in, two staff members were there and although there was a queue for the computers, they did not help which defeats the purpose of having two people at the reception. Had to wait for 15 minutes just to check in. And of course they proceeded in talking with their 'friends' thereafter. Asked for earplugs for two nights in a row (which they mentioned will be available for free) and guess what? They were out.

Room needs more amenities as no tv provided and very very basic not hotel standard as it’s also doesn’t have fridge or kettle for hot drink, double rooms are at hostel standard but charge hotel price, just go for pods if staying as you won’t get much for double or twin rooms! Only a one night stay place for quick stop for sleep ! Staff are very rush rush not best hospitality not many please or thank you very bossy , basically hostel not hotel!

Excellant, but like everything in Dublin overpriced.

It is a hostel with dorms and pods. I stayed there because I was stranded in Dublin due to flight and ferry delays (heavy weather) so ar least I could get some sleep before my onward journey. For what is is (hostel) it was fine. All staff extremely friendly and genuine. Rooms and shower clean. Breakfast could compete with a 4**** hotel. I'm sorry I've missed the live gigs they have there.

Das Zimmer war geräumig und sauber! Das Personal super freundlich und der Check-in einfach easy

Clean room & amenities

It was okay

Unaware that my electoral ID was not classed as valid so had to seek help from Garda Station right beside us, even the officer on duty seemed annoyed as it has my face and name on this ID. No TV in room and areas for socialising in hostel closed too early not much of a nightlife etc which was disappointing. Expected more food variety and places to eat inside not takeaway which we couldn't even have in the room. All drinks also banned from having in the room, otherwise it was fine as long as you don't plan to have a night in and relax. Map at reception not worth a look at either as doesn't give much area information for close to you other than street names which was hard to read sober

Très belle chambre Lit confortable pour les petites personnes (mais moins pour les + de 1m70 Propre

great room, hostel style vibe

The best way for economical tourism.

A nice clean hostel, and good option for staying in Dublin. The pods were nice and the room was clean. The bathroom was very spacious. However, the water in the sinks and shower only ran for about 10-15 seconds. It made it excessively difficult to take a shower. You had to either hold the shower knob down, or press it literally every 5-10 seconds. The location of the hostel was ok, the area was a little dodgy. Definitely a lot of homeless wandering in that area. It did have very close train/tram stations. Pretty easy walk into the main parts of the city too. You also had to pay quite a bit for luggage storage on early arrival/late departure. I had to pay over 5 euros for about an hour and a half of storage. Majority of hostels I’ve stayed in have had free storage rooms. There were certainly some noisy crowds within the hostel, but thankfully my room was pretty quiet. Overall pretty solid hostel option for Dublin, definitely better than some of the others in the area.

The photos of the rooms was not a true representation it was very disappointing, false advertising.

Good stay

So much fun. Will be back!

Personale var vennlige.

Fenster ging nicht zu. Türcode Abfrage viel zu lautes Piepen. Dünne Wände. Fliesen im Bad waren locker scharfkantig. Beklemmendesgefühl bis man ins Zimmer kommt.

The property is great. My issues were what one expects when going to a hostel, namely others snoring and keeping me awake. The front staff were incredibly helpful, helping me to book tours. Shout out to the gentleman who helped me book the Sheep Dog presentation. Fantastic. I really wish I had planned this trip better. I needed more time in Dublin. Latroupe has become my go to for my next trip.

This was my first time experiencing a Hostel. The property was clean. The staff was helpful. They even emailed me that I left my eyeglasses there. The one thing that made me uncomfortable was that they chose to place me, a woman traveling alone, in a room with two men. To be fair, they were great gentlemen. The only thing that drove me crazy was the snoring. It wasn’t the actual bunk mates. It was the thought process of not putting me in a room with at least one other woman or putting a woman in the room with me.
