Well positioned in the centre of Glegarriff. I didn't actually see any staff but the self-check in instructions were clear and worked well. All on street parking in Glengarriff is unrestricted and free, so I was happy. The hostel was clean, the bed comfortable, and the diy breakfast was simple, but good.

Had to walk to the pub? (10 mtrs) lol 😆

I have stayed at and worked at hostel with previous owners. What Dee has done and achieved in such a short period of time, is astounding. The hostel will put most 3* and 4 to shame. Beautifully presented and absolutely spotlessly clean. Visit hostel web site before you regret spending more money than you would like 👍

Was worried about noise from busy road but the traffic died down at night and double glazed windows kept things quiet.

Spotlessly clean, lovely to have free tea, coffee and milk provided. Very quiet at night, we all slept well.

NOTHING

Everything, the price, the quality of the room(it was better than a hotel room), the cleanliness, the quick response by Dee for any questions. And of course the free Continental Breakfast. Can't fault a thing 👍

The Smell of Pizza's oven just under my room. Room quite small, but in line with tariff.

nice hostel, brand new building.

The kitchen was extremely warm especially with the expelled air from the pizzeria. Lovely balcony tho.

Great centre for a stay! Brilliant atmosphere in the village.

located next to the entry to the Blue Pool and in the middle of Glengariff, this hostel is a real gem to stay at with everything in walking distance and a wonderful ambiente inside and outside the hostel. Thanks Dee for a really great experience to stay at your place.

Excellent location, walkable to bars and restaurants but also close to the water, driving distance to Ring of Kerry, Killarney and other beautiful spots. Facilities were clean and well maintained.

Everything! One of the best hostels ever...Dee, the manager is exceptional. Clean, kitchen was incredibly well equipped & spacious. Also a very nice common room. Glengarrif is small, friendly & close to Garnish island and amazing hiking. It's a great base for exploring Bear peninsula and Bantry. Great music in the pubs.

There is nothing about this hostel to dislike.

Room very well presented and beds really comfy. Spotlessly clean and kitchen was well equipped. All round a first class hostel, would highly recommend.

It was warm for our stay, and it was difficult to get the temperature correct for both of us in the room ( our problem).

The hostel was very clean, good hob facility, and utensils with a rear lockup shed for bikes.

the lack of air conditioning - but that's only because we stayed on a hot day, and we don't get many of them in Ireland, so ordinarily that wouldn't be an issue.

The number of bathrooms/toilets was really good, the place was clean, and the kitchen was excellent.

Very modern hostel in a great location! The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The self check in was no problem at all. I was even able to borrow a towel because I forgot mine. I'd highly recommend staying here if you want to explore west cork.

No complaints whatsoever

Dead centre of town, convenient to restaurants, pubs and the ferry to Garnish Island. Really good firm bed ... perfect for those like me with back issues. Clean showers and toilets throughout. Lovely terrace with sea views. Excellent value for money
