Finn McCools Giants Causeway Hostel

Posizione eccezionale, si raggiunge il sito Giant's Causeway in 10 minuti a piedi. Check rapido e con personale gentile e accogliente. Camera spartana ( è un ostello) ma con letti comodi..Atmosfera gioviale . Possibilità di usare la cucina comune e lavatrice.

Great location, super close to the causeway. Fairly cheap

L'emplacement et la situation en pleine nature

Buena ubicación para pasear por los acantilados. Gente agradable. Cocina con todo lo necesario. Agradable. Bonito mirador.

就在巨人之路游客中心旁边，公交站旁边，房间内很干净，入住的时候人并不多。有厨房可以做饭，锅碗瓢盆都有，烤箱微波炉电水壶面包机也都有，甚至还有免费的牛奶、茶和咖啡。餐厅是个露台玻璃房，边欣赏风景边吃饭简直太棒了！如果是晴天非常推荐停留一晚~当天有国人店员，可以中文交流简直太方便了哈哈。小小的遗憾是天花板是斜的，上铺离斜面很近，且没有扶手，翻身不太方便。

La ubicación es excelente. El personal extremadamente amable.

El colchón era muy viejo y al quitar las sábanas habían grandes manchas en el cobertor del colchón, no me atrevi a mirar el colchón en si

i had a warm reception and personal tour of the hostel upon my arrival. The staff were great and we became fast friends. Free parking and walking distance to Causeway were perfect. Hope to return.

Beds could've been a bit firmer... but the positives of the hostel far outweigh any negative.

Great location, good staff, fine sleep

Bathrooms were 3 conventional house bathrooms, between ~30 people.

Proximité avec la chaussée des géants, calme, propre, bon prix

Assez isolé de tout (pub, restaurant, etc), vieillissant et un peu fait de « bric et de broc »

Proximity to Caudeway

Emplacement si on veut être proche de la chaussée des géants

Très très cher pour la qualité de service, très peu de flexibilité L établissement est tenu par des volontaires fonc accueil et ambiance très froide C'est tellement cher que peu de personne ne reste plus d'une nuit Le jardin est si mal tenu que l'on a d'abord pensé que letaissement est à l'abandon. A l'intérieur aussi pas mal d'équipement vétuste et pas assez de sanitaires (queue pour douche et toilettes)

Good location

Bathroom door banging all night shower rooms could do with doing up no hot water in taps

Rien. La chaussée des Géants est accessible à pieds pour ceux qui n’ont pas de véhicule mais l’accès est dangereux car l’établissement est coincé entre deux routes sans trottoir.

L’établissement est vétuste, d’une propreté douteuse et pas du tout confortable.

Just a nice walk close to Giant's Causeway and the heritage Railway

Only option for food after 5 was at the Causeway Hotel. Alternative option would've been a trip to Bushmills

L'emplacement direct à pied la chaussée des géants

Uniquement 2 salles de bain comprenant chacune un wc à l'intérieur, une douche et un lavabo. Très bloquant et longue attente. Location très vieille. Pas entretenue à l'extérieur (mauvaise herbe, matelas usager...) Très cher pour ce que c'est !

Cette "auberge" est à quelques centaines de mètres de la chaussée des géants et nous évite de payer le parking pour y accéder. Comme une véritable auberge pour jeunes voyageurs, il y a des lits superposés, une cuisine partagée avec buanderie intégrée (pratique dans un pays où il pleut souvent), salle de bain et toilettes partagées...

Lits pas très confortables. Pas de bas-côté sur la route qui mène à la chaussée des géants, dangereux. Parking pas adapté à recevoir plus de 2 véhicules sans se bloquer les uns les autres.

Closeness to Giant Causeway.

L’ubicació i les vistes de la terrassa coberta

La neteja

Great location for visiting Giants Causeway

My lower bunk was very low.

nice place with parking just outside

beds weren't that comfortable

L emplacement La cuisine commune mise à disposition

La qualité du couchage

You don’t need to have a car to come here (there is a bus stop just in front of the hostel) and to visit the Giant Causeway (which is just a few minutes walk). The hostel has a well equipped kitchen, and a very nice view. The staff was friendly.

El servicio muy amable y bueno. La localización es perfecta para visitar la Giants Causeway.

La limpieza en general era muy mala, tanto en la habitación como en los baños. Una de las literas, el colchón estaba literalmente en el suelo.

Super close to the Giants Causeway site, if you are looking for it

Not an habit to rate it like it but seriously picture are avoiding lot of not so cool details. Suspicious dust in room2, reparation works done hazardously, and the house is super close to the road.

Excellent, very cozy and clean, and very affordable by the way Location is very good for public transport, staff is friendly, My fav part of this stay - a living room with stunning view, boarding games and a guitar 🤍 Very highly recommended

Great location. Sweet people. Good management!

Just a couple of common bathrooms so mornings can be a bit hectic.

Location and view was great.

Very run down and dirty. Possibly even a fire hazard.

The only real advantage is its location, as it is very close to the seaside.

There are quite a few issues that need serious improvement: Location & Amenities: There are no grocery stores or supermarkets nearby. Also, my food in the shared fridge was taken away just because I didn't label it in time. Cleanliness & Odor: The hostel is extremely dirty and smelly everywhere. The rooms and bedding are far from clean, the shared spaces and mixed dorms have a terrible odor, and the carpets on the stairs are filthy with dust visible on many surfaces. Basic air fresheners could help, but deep cleaning is desperately needed. Facilities & Maintenance: The bathroom is very dirty, the sink was broken, and there was no hot water. The entire building seems to need major maintenance and repairs. Service & Breakfast: There is only one staff member handling reception, cleaning, and everything else, which is clearly understaffed and overwhelming. Additionally, the advertised "breakfast" was practically non-existent. While I understand it's a budget backpacker hostel, they really need to hire more staff to keep the place clean, functional, and hygienic.

Only a few minutes walk from the causeway visitor center, really good price for such a good location. The members of staff were very nice, we spent the evening chatting and listening to music with the other travelers. The kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom is pretty big.

To go to the upper bed you have to climb a dangerous and painful ladder, and once you're in the bed, the ceiling is really close, you can't even sit. That was the only issue.

La ubicación y terracita acristalada al atardecer.

Los electrodomésticos estaban para tirar, muy sucios y regular el funcionamiento. Las sartenes mal tb (se pegaba la comida). El baño, le hace falta renovar y mejorar bastante.

Bien situé par rapport à la Chaussée des Géants !

Très,très bruyant entre l’extérieur, la route passagère et les habitants de l’auberge de jeunesse, plancher et escalier qui craquent, les portes qui claquent ou grincent . Vous êtes gâtés ! Prévoir des boules quies .

The kitchen and the veranda are nice and clean. Friendly volunteers. Big fridge.

There was no manager when I was there, just two young volunteers running the hostel. The windows and doors were shaking in the night because of the draught caused by the wind blowing through untight windows and doors. Mattress so old and worn I could feel the springs. The bathrooms... a unique makeshift. Very spartan!

L'emplacement juste à côté de la Chaussée des Géants, super pour partir randonner.

Accueil en dessous du minimum, un bordel sans nom partout, cuisine sale. Côté chambre et salle de bain c'est Ok mais pas nickel non plus... J'ai l'habitude des gîtes depuis + de 30 ans, rarement vu un tel je m'enfoutisme...

C'était très proche des giant causeway.

The accommodation is in a good location. The hiking trail and the bus stop are close by.

When I arrived late at night, tired, I had to wait because my room wasn't ready. The accommodation is very messy.

El lloc és excepcional, ben comunicat amb transport públic , tot i la situació de l'allotjament en un lloc remot. El personal voluntari molt amable.

Very good pricing. Great location if you’re traveling through and visiting. Great facilities. It’s a real hostel experience, especially comparing it to other “hostels” in Ireland.

Bathrooms could have been more actively maintained. Such as common towel replacements, tidiness, and cleanliness.

It's a beautiful location within walking distance of the giants causeway, Bushmills and portballantrae. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable.

Not very good mattresses and a better lock on the toilet door would be great.

Very,good we enjoyed,,more friendly people,nice atmosphere

All,,whas good,we stay with family and everyone whas happy,,

The position was great and it is good value for money.

Cleaning was not up to my standards.

Location and Staff

Super Lage fußläufig zum Giant's Causeway. Schöne Sonnenuntergänge im Garten. Geringe Belegung der Schlafsäle. Saubere Bettwäsche.

Chaotische Küche. Nur zwei Badezimmer. Sauberkeit ok. Alles sehr rustikal.

Lovely location, minutes’ walk from the actual Giants Causeway. Good to be able to visit in the evening after the crowds had dispersed. Self-catering kitchen.

It felt like it had seen better days, but to be fair, it’s a hostel and not a luxurious hotel. No pubs open close by in the evening, without a wee bus ride.

The location was absolutely stellar. Unbeatable. I decided to walk down to giant’s causeway at midnight just cause it was so close. Plenty of things to do at the hostel when you’re resting.

Bushmills, the nearest town, is a 45 minute walk but thats ok. There are buses if you’re in a rush. The walk is lovely. The bed wasn’t especially comfortable.

Comfortable mattress and great kitchen facilities

Beds are to the floor which was difficult to navigate after a marathon. The shared facilities were grotty, the carpet is filthy.

Staff molto accogliente e ottima posizione

The location enabled us to see Giant’s Causeway without crowds and literally walk out from the hostel to hike. It is a chilled place with a good vibe

Hier müsste wirklich viel gemacht werden. Trotzdem hatten wir einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt. Wir haben ein Upgrade auf ein größeres Zimmer bekommen und hatten so viel mehr Platz. Die Betten waren überraschend gut. Die Gemeinschaftsküche ist soweit okay. Es ist eigentlich sauber, obwohl es teilweise echt abgenutzt und hässlich ist. Der Wintergarten ist super, die Lage absolut perfekt. Unsere Fahrräder standen sicher und trocken im Wintergarten.

Es muß wirklich und dringend renoviert werden.

This isn't 5* luxury but it's in a fantastic location and we had a very comfortable stay. The communication was excellent and the staff very helpful and friendly. The facilities are very comfortable and everything we needed was available. It's great value for money too...

What I Liked: Walking distance to Causeway. Bus stop at door.

The wifi was good... once it finally worked. Paper thin walls. Showers terrible. A loud two hour badly played Irish bagpipe torture session inside the hostel after dinner courtesy of an extremely inconsiderate musician 🙄 The showers were horrendous. One of them had a broken element inside so the water didn't get hot enough, the other has the drain pipe blocked 🤢

Easy to get to, cheap and easy stay

Didn’t like car parking at all

Sehr gute Lage für den Giant Causeway. Das Personal war sehr nett. Das Hostel an sich ist ok gewesen. Für eine Nacht in Ordnung.

Es war recht kalt in den Räumlichkeiten, so dass es im Zimmer selbst auch recht klamm war. Musste das Heizgerät nachts einschalten. Die Gemeinschaftsbäder könnten durchaus sauberer sein.

I have a long story about this atrocious place which i will publish. Unfortunately it was due to a totally incompetent manager. I feel sorry for the owners who have left this idiot in charge

Hôtel type auberge de jeunesse. C'est plutôt sympa, le personnel est accueillant et attentionné. Les équipements sont limites, c'est approximativement propre, Il faudrait un grand coup de ménage et de relookage pour que cet endroit soit au top. Il ne manque pas grand chose. Le rapport qualité prix reste correct pour l'endroit. A 5 minutes à pied de la chaussée des géants. Bus pour Busmill en face l'auberge.

Vétusté de certains équipements, douches, lits...

Very friendly staff. Very welcoming. Place had everything I needed for my short stay and more. The kitchen had lots to offer for a comfortable cooking for small place like this. Little causy living room and wonderfool view form the little dinning patio. Location is absolutely stanning.

I had no problem at all. All was great for me.

Overall the value was great! And its location is very convenient if you planned to visit the Giants Causeway. Also the current staff member Evan is a great guy to make conversation with. He automatically improves my rating of the hostel.

The place is a little run down. The common kitchen & reception area smelled a bit of smoke when I came in. The kitchen wasn’t the cleanest either, but it wasn’t filthy. It was more like someone’s messy old house. Beds were alright, but it’s a hostel so you have to manage expectations. You sleep with other people.

La ubicación es ideal El chico que nos atendió fue muy amable y nos hizo buenas recomendaciones El alojamiento dispone de cocina que puedes utilizar y algunos alimentos gratis, además de un salón con vistas al atardecer

Las camas no eran muy cómodas

La vista sull'Atlantico! Da perdere il fiato L'accoglienza e la disponibilità dello staff

Nulla da dire!

Notre hôte Evan est super sympa, visite du logement, conseils pour les lieux à voir dans le coin, mise à disposition de nourriture gratuite pour les voyageurs qui en ont besoin. Auberge offrant un confort simple, parfait pour les voyageurs qui souhaitent découvrir Giant's Causeway sans prise de tête dans un cadre chaleureux et accueillant.

Evan was extremely helpful. Plenty of free tea and coffee. Great views, handy for buses.

Good location, not too busy during april/may Nice staff, I was welcomed by a nice volunteer Stay one night to see the sunset on giants causeway when nobody's around, it is really worth it !

Kitchen a bit dirty but it is ok for the price. Be prepared to share your room with strange people, this can happen with the low price of a room. So my advice is to book only one night, at least if the weather is nice you will have a great sunset !

Beds were fine. Family room with 6 beds was spacious. Great location to walk to Giants Causeway (yay, no need to pay parking fees or shuttle buses). Kitchen was serviceable.

Bathroom was gross. Mouldy, very run down. Water in shower came out in a dribble not a spray. U r paying for its location (which is great for the Causeway) but u need a car to be able to drive into Bushmills to reach resturants etc. Bathrooms needs to be redone if this place wants to survive.

Clean, warm and dry. A good backpackers hostel. They do not do free breakfast, but there is good free instant coffee, tea, and plenty of free fresh milk in the fridge. They also operate a free food box system for items left by previous backpackers. No bed bugs (we were alarmed by previous reviews - we looked VERY hard - no sign at all). The bus stop is 10 metres from the door, day bus every half hour. Rudy was a good host for us.

Minor things, a few more coffee mugs? The central heating had a problem but there were good separate heaters in the rooms.

Thank you clean , comfortable beds , and thank you for sending back my kindle x

The shower could of been better

Great location and very friendly staff which gave great advice about the surrounding area and how to manage our visit so that we would not get stranded. Given that the place is quite close to the Giant's Causeway and not much else, it was very useful! The place was quiet and clean. We travelled in March so it was mainly us and just 1-2 other guests so if you are looking for a quiet period, this is probably it.

The place is a bit run down and probably needs of renovations. It is very functional and it is clean, but overall the facilities need a bit of a polish when it comes to aspect.

Buenísimo! Super cómodo y buenas instalaciones. El personal fue muy amable. Buena ubicación, hay una parada de buses al lado y además queda muy cerca de Giant Causeway

Good staffs , nice and tidy environment

Nothing

We had a grand stay! Jacinta was most kind the room was great. Location could not be better if you’re trying to stay close to the Giant’s Causeway for a brilliant price!
