Jacobs Inn Dublin

Dublin City Centre, Dublin

Just a 5-minute walk from Dublin’s lively Temple Bar entertainment district, this modern purpose-built hostel offers affordable accommodation within the very heart of the city. It specialises in group hostel accommodation for schools, universities and low-budget tours to Dublin. Very clean, and the dorm's layout was good, with the entrance and bathroom far enough from the pods as to not disturb others if one leaves or uses the bathroom. The mattress in the pods was thin but comfortable, and inside there are 2 different lights (a dimmer blue one, and a stronger one), and 2 USB type A ports. The dorm also has a large, pin based locker for each pod that you can set on arrival.
