Latest Review for Claddagh Hostel

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

Quirky little place, very friendly & ideal for one or two nights & only if passing through. Staff very helpful. Rooms very small but did the job although wasn't too impressed with the toilet/shower facilities. Excellent location to bust station and the city centre. Recommend for 18-30 age group, students, back-packers. Would stay again but did think price for one was a bit steep as had to pay for a double room even though the hostel had many available rooms.
