Hostels in Dublin

[Roseallee]

Hi Everyone,
I am flying from Canada via Dublin to Biarritz in Sept. to begin my Camino from St. Jean. Does anyone have advice on a good hostel in Dublin? Dublin seems to be a hub for cheap flights from Canada this year, so perhaps other future pilgrims might also appreciate such information. Thanks, roseallee

Avalon House on Aungier St. You can book it on Hostels & Youth Hostels Worldwide - Online Bookings

The 16A bus from the airport will drop you straight across the road. It's the slow bus but it's cheap. You need to pay with the exact change, I think it's €1.80.

How much time will you have in Dublin?

Hi Gerald,
I really appreciate your advice. I went ahead and booked it. I know how city hostels can fill up far in advance. They will even refund my bus fare from the airport at reception if I show the ticket.
I have 3 days in Dublin. What should I see, never having been there before?
Thanks for your help, roseallee
