*Clean and Safe
*Nice and helpful staff
*Nice sitting room and self-kitchen

We really appreciated the helpfulness of the night staff and the ability to book tours right from the front desk. The room was great, huge and divided so as to provide some privacy. Hard beds, but that's to be expected in a hostel. Clean bathrooms and breakfast of toast and cereal is included. Well worth the money.

The interior decorating was fun and had many hangout areas to make friends and cook. The service is great! They will go above and beyond to meet your needs. The location is great, in between the bus station and downtown. The bathrooms hadn't been cleaned Yet that morning and there was matted hair and a large dead bug in the shower. Maybe if you take a shower later, you won't encounter this. The sheets needed to be replaced because there was stains in them. They were washed but still stained.

I have stayed in the Railway Hostel 3 times and never had any issues. common area is always clean, staff on reception friendly and the location is unreal for such a good price. My friends and I often use the hostel to go to Kilarney to see J90 who play in the Grand hotel on a monday night which is well worth the 2 hour drive for.
