Lovely building! Sean takes obvious pride in everyone having a comfortable stay. There were ample fridges, and a very large, well stocked kitchen, including tea, coffee, milk (there was non-dairy milk in the fridge!), bread and snacks. The room had a nice wardrobe in it, ample outlets, and very cute bedside tables and a little chair. There is a washer and dryer on-site. There is also a shared space to eat and hang out, though there wasn't much of a socializing while I stayed.

Extremely quiet and comfortable. That is, if there are few people in the hostel. If people are talking downstairs or on the staircase, it gets a bit loud, but that doesn't last usually. I had the best sleep in Dromid hostel on St Patrick's Day. The idea was to escape the loudness of the city and it worked absolutely gorgeous. I had a private room (one of four from what I gather) which was right above the kitchen overlooking the river. The kitchen was very handy, very spacious with lots of appliances, dishes and nice wooden tables to eat. There's a pub and a store nearby where you can eat and get groceries, but I didn't, so can't tell anything about them. There are mountains and lakes around. I found a trail on an app that leads to Waterville. It took me about 40min walking to get to the beginning of the trail itself. There must be just regular paths people use that are closer and lead to lakes nearby but I didn't explore them.

This place is big and spacious. There is a large common area and a very well-equipped kitchen where you can cook anything; the interior of the common places is delightful. There is free parking. Also, there are a lot of restaurants and supermarkets next door; on top of that, it is just a 15 minute drive away from the Cliffs of Moher. I will definitely be back there :) Special thanks to the friendly staff for the late night check-in :)

Extremely quaint hostel in a breathtaking location. Seemed like a lot of backpackers and other young travelers were staying there. Right across the street from a great pub and some good restaurants. Easy to access by bus but not much within walkable distance. Staff allowed us to drop off our bags before our check in time. Room and bathroom were clean.

It's absolutely beautiful and cozy. You can sit in a nice living room by the fire and they have a huge back yard with chickens. It's close to the city center and the bus station where bus coaches will drop you off. You can walk to Ross Castle in 40 minutes and into the Nationalpark. The rooms are big and you have privacy with curtains. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the two dogs are absolutely adorable. The showers and bathrooms are clean. Best hostel I ever stayed at.

Excellent stay for the hostel. Had a room to our selves, bunk beds, which is perfectly grand. Facilities were great too, kitchen, chill out area and bathroom/shower. You definitely need a car, and it is not difficult to find, and place of parking spaces. If we are going that way again, will definitely book Greenway & Copper Coast Hostel again

Hostel itself was well equipped with beautiful views and and comfortable.lounge and kitchen. We liked the fact that this was a community enterprise. The cakes were a nice touch. The pub and shop next door are a real bonus and the lady that runs them was an absolute star letting us into the pub 10 minutes early for a Guinness. Great location to break on the Kerry Way. Private room with en suite bathroom was comfortable.
