The bed itself was reasonable and the capsule provided a level of privacy you don't get in an normal dorm, however the USB charge points did not work, the towel provided had a stain (hopefully a mark that didn't come out in the wash but this still didn't look pleasant), old food was left in the lockers, the "kitchen"/reception area had bags of rubbish piled in the corridors, and the shower had mould on the ceilings. Whilst I was not expecting premium quality and service, considering how much I paid for the stay I most certainly cannot recommend this place.

Perfect stay

We loved this place , there was minor issues that can easily get fixed, like putting a lock on the pods that way the traveler can comfortably leave things there without having to worry about things getting stolen,also if you oversized person restroom is not big enough , installing small fans inside pods would help massively because the air coming from mirror is not enough , other than that restaurants across the river temple bar is 8min walk

2 nights in a Pod!

We had a great 2 day stay, was meet on arrival. Obviously this is a place to sleep only so we paid a deposit for lockers to keep our kit safe. Problem, no receptionist on a Sunday and cleaner could only refund for one locker. Contacted hostel on the Monday through WA and problem solved, bank transfer. Thankyou for that!! Pods were clean, bathroom clean! Only negative was the USB points in the Pods didn't work and they were extremely warm, door had to remain open. Overall a positive experience!
Clean and comfortable

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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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...

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.

Check in needs improving

The hostel was as expected and for what we paid it was good. It was clean, fresh bedding and towels provided and in the pods felt quite spacious and safe. The location was also good. The thing that let this down was the no communication prior to check in advising how to check in. We tried to make contact with the hostel and the phone number did not exist leaving us worrying that we were having to find somewhere else to stay and the cheapest available accommodation in Dublin was over £500. After lots of Google searches we found a number you could WhatsApp and luckily we got our details to check in and access the building. I would say this is something that needs improving. Also the phone charging points in the pods didn’t work and there are not many power outlets. Overall, you get what you pay for and wasn’t a bad experience

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.
