KCR House Pub in Dublin

21/05/2026: This hostel is a good location in Dublin. It is very centralized in downtown Dublin making everything very close by and walkable. The hostel is more of a party hostel with constant activities going on here. This is an interesting aspect, as we could hear music going throughout the night and shaking out room. The rooms are also not very "soundproof" and we were able to hear the room next to us along with the hallway very easily. We also frequently heard what I imagine to be drunken individuals screaming in the hallways from 2 - 4 AM. This resulted in poor sleep multiple nights. The room itself is quite nice, with cute murals on the walls. The bathroom is small, but very adequate for what is needed. The only note I would say is that the shower drain needs to be cleaned as it would take a long time to drain and it was obvious there was hair blockage. One final note is that if you want towels included you do have to pay extra for them to be included.

20/05/2026: It's okay. I came in with the mindset that it would be a quick stop for backpacker's and quite young people. And that's pretty much what it was. If I would have been in my twenties I would probably have enjoyed it more. The rooms were nothing special but not bad either. The bathroom in our room did have a bunch of weird stains tho. The service from the people in the reception really depended on who you were talking to. Some were helpful, some clearly wanted you to take your questions elsewhere. I can also mention that in the men's restroom at the bar/lobby every stall except one had broken locks and the floor was wet with what I hope, but doubt was water.
