We had a great time, we were attending a concert at Croke Park so it was perfect for putting our head down without paying a fortune. Amenities were all as described. I definitely would return.

Pods were perfect! Fit 2 people. Bathrooms were clean, even soap was available! Just ask for extra towel if needed! Recommend for small traveling and a few days! Definitely would stay again. Staff is nice and accommodating. Location was awesome very close to Temple Bar!

The space pods are AWESOME!! The bedsheets and pillows are clean, beds comfy and (visuallly) private! The rooms and grooves around the bed could use a vacuuming typical of hostels, and our booking for two sadly only equipped us with one towel to share, so that was less than ideal. Kitchen is not too equipped, there were espresso pods but no cups. Also, important to note there is NO parking available. There are two nearby Qpark lots but check the hours as the nearer, and cheaper one, is locked so if you need after hours arrival or departure, you will have to use the Christchurch Qpark which is fairly pricey (overnight was 51€....could be a bit cheaper if you are able to pre-book) and a 10 minute walk to Astra. Note: the rooms are up 20 steps per floor, and the bathrooms are in the basement - counting the three steps into the top pod it was about 50 stairs down from our 2nd floor bunk room to the bathrooms...

Pod layout means you they are very hard to climb in and out of and makes uncomfortably close with other guests doors. Showers and toilets located in same room, toilets so close to the wall you have to sit on the side to use them. Arrived and we hadn't been booked in - took some time to find the email with our booking.

Booked this as the pods seemed like a cool idea vs a typical bunk situation. Unfortunately the air flow in the pods is so poor that it’s difficult to sleep without the door open. The room was so hot and humid that my partner and I were soaked in sweat all night as well. I booked a locker to keep our valuables in for a supposedly refundable €20. When we left in the morning the property manager was not there. I hung the locker key in the locker, sent a photo to the owner asking for the €20. It’s been about a month and I still haven’t received a response. Bathrooms were disgusting and my 5’2” partner barely had enough room to sit on the toilet because the room is so narrow. Someone smeared sh*t all over the toilet paper roll and it was still like that when we left. I’m not one to complain typically. I’m aware that hostels are affordable for a reason and don’t expect much. But this was a terrible stay.

For one night it was ok, but not more. The pods were too hot during the night. They should put a better AC into them.

The staff at Astra Hostel were kind and helpful. The location of the hostel is ideal/close to the city center. It was very convenient to be able to leave our stuff before check-in. The staff arrived only at 10am for checking out - not a problem for us, but for anyone with an early flight, be sure to mention this to the staff. The pods did not lock, nor was there anywhere in the pods to lock personal belongings. Moreover, the bathrooms are wet on the ground and were only cleaned once during our 3 day stay.

Mold, broken facilities, and filthy bathrooms. Avoid this place at all costs! We stayed here recently and I strongly advise other travelers not to book this hostel. The sleeping capsules themselves were okay small but expected for the price. The light worked fine, but the power outlet inside the capsule didn’t, so we couldn’t charge our phones. The main issue, however, was the state of the shared bathrooms, which was absolutely unacceptable. • The shower silicone joints were yellow and black, while the ones around the rest of the bathroom were completely black with mold. • The windows couldn’t be opened, so all the steam and moisture just stayed inside, making everything damp and musty. • The bathroom floor was constantly wet, with visible dirt and hair that clearly hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. • There was even a slug crawling on the ceiling, which was extremely unpleasant to see. • The toilet seat was broken, and the white tiles had turned brownish from layers of grime. I didn’t personally check the other bathrooms, but judging from what we saw, it’s hard to imagine they were in better condition. When we went to the reception in the morning, no staff were present. On the desk there was a small empty plastic bag that looked suspiciously like it had contained illegal substances, which didn’t exactly inspire confidence. Additionally, there were empty alcohol bottles left in the hallway, adding to the overall feeling of neglect. We contacted Expedia for a refund and
