Localisation, équipement de la cuisine et rapport qualité prix imbattable
This was little way off the Dungarvan to Waterford Cycle Greenway (40 mins by bike- exit just after 22km in Waterford direction, but it was worth it as we discovered the beeches of the Copper Coast. These remain in tourist terms undiscovered and are perfect roads for cylcing. The bedroom and bed clothing was spotless and the washrooms and showers were perfectly clean.
The kitchen has all it needs and is about to be refurbished. Prices in Ireland compared to the equivalent in Germany seem high but this was cheapest I could find in what was a half way cycle journey between Cork and Rosslare.
Very noisy place, far from everything. Not so children friendly as expected from the description as the hostel seems to be an unfinished shed. No pressure in the shower, sometimes no hot water. We sleep very bad.
La zona es muy bonita y el personal amable. Es la segunda vez que vengo y no me falla. La zona es muy bonita a 5 min de la playa, a 15 min de Kilmacthomas que puedes alquilar bicis y hacer rutas.
W jednej nocy była cisza nocna zakłócona
Lits confortables.
La douche était bouchée
Locatie, uitgeruste keuken.
Bedden waren niet zo comfortabel.
Friendly staff, clean kitchen and all facilities
The hostel was a great place to stay. Our late arrival was accommodated. The manager, Nicholas, welcomed us in the morning and gave us great suggestions about our ongoing journey. The hostel was clean and comfortable with table tennis and pool table. It was in a beautiful situation near Bunmahon. We enjoyed our stay.
Nothing - it was great value for money.
Nicholas was a great host and both himself and his better half were very helpful and accommodating. The place is well kept and not too far from the places of interest (Geopark/ Bunmahon Beach/ Copper Mines). The rates were very reasonable, especially for the middle of summer and we would certainly love to visit again sometime. The living room was spacious and the kitchen well stocked with all cooking equipment. There are multiple bathroom facilities and everything is kept spotless.
Nothing, everything was great!
Location and friendly staff

Had a lovely stay very clean rooms
The place was spotless, clean and the kitchen is fully equipped with things that you need. Nicholas is super friendly and accommodating.... We had a lovely stay near the beach all together.
Everything
Absolutely amazing little find! Super clean and the host was lovely. In such a great location close to the beach. Was perfect for what we needed for the night.
La cercanía con la playa, habitaciones cómodas. El señor que nos atendió fue muy amable.
Very convenient place to stop and relax. Warm and welcoming host.

C'etait différent des autres logements. J'aime beaucoup le concept. Pas du grand luxe mais bien
Il faisait un peu froid dans les couloirs pour aller à la douche
L'accueil du propriétaire et la cuisine commune utilisable pour faire à manger.
Pas de serviettes de douche à disposition. L'indication pour l'accueil n'est pas très claire, les aboiements des chiens font hésiter a ouvrir le portillon, mais finalement il faut oser.
emplacement très surprenant derrière une entreprise; l'intérieur est très simple mais hyper propre, les lits confortables . Le propriétaire est très gentil . IL a également mis en place un espace de jeux avec les moyens du bord (billards quilles...) utile en cas de pluie. cuisine avec tout le nécessaire. Rapport qualité prix excellent.
I was there during the early season and I had a private room. It was quiet and peaceful and there was plenty of parking. Bed was comfortable and the heat worked well.
There are several small fridges some of which seem to be on their last legs. Even with it being slow while I was there I found it a challenge to keep my few food items in a working fridge.
Beautiful property and great facilities. The games room was an excellent addition. Amazing if you’re staying with a large group, family or just having a two person trip. Very private and safe rooms. The staff was amazing and even offered us a ride to are bus station when leaving.
Great family stay in Coastal. Clean rooms and toilets. Great host, showed everything around. We spent a lot of time in game room with snooker and ping pong table. We had such amazing time. Thank you very much to Nicholas, will be back

Brilliant establishment with everything you could possibly need. The hosts were warm and friendly and couldn't be helpful enough.
Everything was great.
Warm welcome, spotless, comfortable bed.
Great location, very clean and comfortable, Nicholas the host is a very friendly person 😊
All good 👍
Der Gastgeber war ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit. Er hat unser Zimmer upgegradet und war trotz Hochzeitstagsfeier (seiner eigenen) sofort bei Fragen verfügbar.
The host was so nice and friendly Room was lovely warm
Nicholas was very accommodating when we landed and gave us the tour of the place. The hostel facilities such as the kitchen, living room, shower and toilets were clean and spacious. I specially love the games room because I played pool with my dad and it has other games you can try as well. I would definitely recommend this place as the room was value for money, great location because it is literally 30 minutes away to everything we want to go: Tramore, Waterford City, Dungarvan and Mahon Falls. and the owner Nicholas was very welcoming, helpful and friendly overall.
Чисто, тепло в номере, гарячий душ, общая кухня со всем необходимым! Пляж в этом городке произвел на нас наибольшее впечатление за всю поездку, если идти направо на гору
Alloggio spartano ed essenziale, ampio parcheggio
Bunmahon itself
The room did not match the images on the website. There was a strong smell of smoke in the room, and even after airing before bed, the odour worsened during the night and woke me up around 1:30 a.m. I had to open the window, which made the room cold and left me feeling uncomfortable and chilly. As a non-smoker, I found the smell very hard to tolerate and quite upsetting. A night light stayed on in the room all night, and the constant brightness affected my sleep. I also noticed a dark hair on the bed, making me wonder whether the bedding had been changed recently. Unfortunately, the quality of the stay did not match the cost. I would not return.
Kitchen, own room for two, sink in the room, location on the Copper Coast route.
A large group of males who seem to be construction workers who live there. They didn't look like guests or tourists. They were very loud past 10pm (against the quiet time policy), snoring all night, banging doors and shouting all over the place from 6 am. We didn't get much sleep and were wrecked the following day.
Lovely owner,nice cheap clean accommodation
Cycling up big hill
Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ich habe mich gleich zu Beginn sehr willkommen gefühlt. Der Inhaber ist ein ganz lieber Kerl mit dem man sich gut unterhalten kann :)
Die Küche war zum Teil einbischen dreckig. Die Air Fryer waren sehr dreckig und nicht appetitlich anzusehen ,so auch die Mikrowelle. Die Heizung hat die ganze Zeit geknarzt, so dass ich sie über Nacht ausschalten musste und morgens leicht erkältet aufwachte. Generell war es sehr kalt im Hostel.
Nicholas the owner was super friendly and offered lots of helpful advice and places locally to visit. So good we booked an extra - night. Loved the spacious kitchen and games room. Great nights sleep.

Comfy beds,nice and warm room
Perfect..as regards tranquility Close to the beach
Maybe TV in the room
Wonderful budget location in one of the most beautiful spots Ireland has to offer. Lovely host and great amenities. If you don't expect luxury, this place is absolutely perfect
Great host and had everything we needed. Incredible value and great setting.

Atention its sow Good
It’s as advertised. Very basic accomodation but the person working there was lovely and everything worked as needed. The room was clean and the accom was well located. Very happy.
It’s very basic in terms of facilities, but, again, that’s what it sets out to do.
Le lieu est très bien équipé. Le propriétaire des lieux est vraiment très gentil malgré qu'il ne parle par Français, il fait en sorte de comprendre vos demandes. Une pièce est équipé avec des jeux pour les enfants avec table de ping pong et autres jeux pour qu'ils puissent se distraire. La mer est proche de l'établissement
Games room, tv room. Clean bathrooms.
Window blinds were dirty. Relatively expensive. Too far to walk to village/beach.
Es ist genao so, wie der Name es sagt: Ein Hostel. Zu deutsch: Eine Unterkunft im Stil einer Jugendherberge. Nicht mehr und nicht weniger.
Great location, spacious room, and very kind and hospitable host.
Nicholas was an excellent host. He gave us some good suggestions on places to visit. He clearly loves running a hostel. kitchen provided everything we needed and we had a great night sleep. beds very comfortable.
The shower itself was good but the ventilation wasn't so great which meant that things got kind of damp. It wasn't a big deal.
Le côté fonctionnel Rien c'est juste parfait niveau budget et commodités
Rien
Nicholas was a great host and was really friendly to talk to! The place is nice, clean and comfy for a short getaway not too far from the main spots to visit in Bunmahon.
There's nothing to add.
Pulizia impeccabile e posto bellissimo per il rapporto qualità/prezzo.
Nulla, tutto perfetto.
Friendly host, Nice rooms, near the cost, nice Price
Everything ok.
Nice rooms with enough space,. Hot and clean shower. Very nice host to give some insights for the area.
Unfortunately no lockers for a bagpack
Zimmer mit eigenem Waschbecken, Hostel mit Gemeinschaftsküche und Gemeinschaftsraum, alles da, was man braucht. 30 Minuten zu Fuß zum Meer, Sandstrand, Klippen, Pub.
Accueil et personne très serviable et aux petits soins A refaire
Les chambres sont en dortoir, il y a donc un esprit auberge de jeunesse. Je pense que cela convient a des voyageurs solo, en couple ou entre amis. peut-être un peu moins adapté aux familles, néanmoins il y a une grand hangar avec des jeux ( bowling en bois...)
Le fait que cela soit en dortoir , mais c'est une erreur de ma part, car c'est bien précisé dans l'annonce.
Nicholas sait faire aimer sa région et donne d'excellents conseils. Il est également très serviable. La salle de jeux a été très appréciée. La cuisine était pratique.
Plus de rangements dans la chambre de 4 pour un séjour de plusieurs jours aurait été plus pratique.
La flexibilité et l'accueil de l'hôte sont un vrai plus. Tout comme la propreté, le calme et l'espace disponible, sans parler du coût minime de la nuitée. La proximité de belles plages est avantageux.
Les installations étaient parfaites et le rapport qualité prix excellent. Une offre trop rare en Irlande où les gîtes d’étape sont peu fréquents et les logements chers. L’accueil du propriétaire très serviable était top.
El trato personal del dueño.
Very clean hostel, spacious room for 3 people. Good big kitchen dinng room. Very clean showers and bathrooms. Friendly host, with lots of local knowledge. Nice mix of families, and some elderly people staying there. Good facilities for teens too in the games room.
It was a few km from the sea, overall not a big problem if you have a car. It was in a peaceful rural location - good to get away from it all.
L'emplacement, proche de la mer et au calme, le rapport qualité-prix
Les douches n'étaient pas très propres.
Meals aren't provided though there was milk and some breakfast cereals
It was interesting meeting a group of Ukranians, who sang and danced, and didn't disturb us in the night as they might have done
Excellent value spotlessly clean and friendly staff
Very clean and comfy room c/w washbasin & twin power outlets at each end of room. Spotless shared shower room and toilets. Ample hot water. Well equipped kitchen area. Clean, comfortable lounge area. Secure parking for motorcycle.
Judging this property as budget accommodation I rate it as 5 Star in that capacity. So, nothing really to fault my overnight experience.
Even though we arrived late, the check-in process was easy as the key was left on the desk for us. We had the chance to meet the owner the next day—he was very friendly and shared lots of helpful information about the local area, which made exploring much easier.
Unfortunately, we were disturbed a few times during the night by people running in the hallway and someone mistakenly knocking on our door. While it wasn’t the hostel’s fault, it did affect our sleep.
