Felt Unsafe
The room was tired, with some holes in the walls and masking tape around the doors. It would have been fine for the price, HOWEVER... We were woken up at 11:50pm by a man knocking on the door asking for Amanda. We told him that there wasn't an Amanda in the room and he demanded that we open the door and show him our passports. We are two women and were in our pyjamas. The man did not identify himself so we refused (it is an unstaffed hotel so we had no reason to believe it was a staff member). He eventually went away after demanding multiple times (both to us and the next room). We were left very uncomfortable by the situation. I tried to ring the number on the booking but could not get through. I messaged and the hotel confirmed that the aggressive man had been a member of hotel staff!!

Horrible. I felt very unsafe, the person on the bunk bed under me was touching himself and being very loud. It smelled bad, there was like 20 people. It was more of a homeless shelter then a hostel.

Ease to public transportation. The hostess English is choppy so communication was a bit difficult. It was a good stay overall. Neighborhood is a bit dirty but very convenient location. Our room access was easy , the hostess send direct and understandable instructions to gain access.

KGT house was pretty ok. The beds were comfy answer wifi. They seemed pretty disorganized, and they didn't seem to know who I was when I got there from Expedia. It did feel secure. And I didn't have any problem with People there. It's just not a four or five star facility. The food was pretty meager for the nine euros And I found a full breakfast for only two euros more down the street. I'd still stay there again if it was just me, but not with kids.

Great place to sleep in Dublin for a night or two. Room was huge - there were 2 of us but it could have slept 6! It was about a 20 minute walk to the centre which was perfect for exploring and the price was excellent compared to other hotels. It was self-check-in so we didn't see any staff.

Code didn't work for check in as I was emailed the wrong one.. managed to phone someone who gave me the correct one but if you arrived at night and didn't have a roaming package your stuffed. The room itself was fine but god awful hot no fan or AC to speak of can't open the windows because the extractor from the takeaway beneath just blasts directly into the room. For £100 for a private room isn't all that cheap I don't think but relatively cheap for Dublin. Only stayed hear because I was to leave at 4am for the airport probably wouldn't stay again but ultimately you get what you pay for

Questionable if sheets were cleaned between use, as there was a copious about of black lint on every bed, and multiple strands of hair everywhere on the sheets. In addition, there was NO HOT WATER, and we went in January. The instructions say to flip the switch for 15 mins for hot water, and hot water never came. Neighborhood is extremely walkable and tourist friendly for public transport, but there are also many other hotels in the area.

Brutal...could NOT even get inside the Building (had to wait for a pre-existing guest to return to the premises [with his take away lunch] and open the Front door for himself to gain entrance), after ringing the doorbell and knocking on the Front door for over 45 minutes!! NO staff members on the premises at all and there was NO "front desk" to check in at, even though the property states there is in the 'Confirmation' email that I received. My Guest and I were out a Room, I ended up booking in at another Hotel and he ended up driving back home to the very south of Ireland in Wexford! Absolutely NO/Zero compensation whatsoever (not even partial compensation)!! I would NOT even consider staying there ever again...NOT even if it was FREE!! Front door is a single man door which is NOT very well marked either, so very hard to spot unless you have your Google Maps handy! GOOD Luck if you decide to stay there!!! The Positive is it is handy to the core of the Dublin City and the Train....but there is a fairly steep hill (upwards) for 2 blocks to reach the Building. ***Plenty of well marked Hotels (down the hill and at more level ground), closer to the core of Dublin City, closer to the Trains, and closer to the River, than KGT House...where they actually have a 'Front Desk' with staff members onsite!!

Do not stay here.
This is probably the worst place I’ve ever stayed in. You can literally hear every foot step taken extremely loudly, the beds are load and squeak with every move, never mind any night time activities, and the bathroom fan is extremely loud. Avoid!
