Fit 2 people. Bathrooms were clean, even soap was available! Just ask for extra towel if needed! Recommend for small traveling and a few days! Definitely would stay again. Staff is nice and accommodating. Location was awesome very close to Temple Bar! ##### Destinee Nicole Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Hanah Aug 1, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Hanah Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Erin Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Amenities USB ports didn't work. Only one towel provided despite us being a group of two. Friendly staff. ##### Erin Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tessa Sep 17, 2025 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... ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/478f3d92-93f4-4110-9ea6-a8dd966be261-1758149777895.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tessa Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yemisi May 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked the pod! ##### Yemisi Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emiliano Oct 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great located, clean and silent, excellent price and place ##### Emiliano Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ellen Jun 1, 2025 We thought the pod idea might be fun but with parking way too far away we didnt stay.

The pods were too hot during the night. They should put a better AC into them. ##### Robin Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Amanda Jun 14, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities 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. ##### Amanda Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Tony Jun 25, 2025 Electrical outlets don’t work in the pods. ##### Tony Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ryan Sep 17, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Booked this as the pods seemed like a cool idea vs a typical bunk situation. Unfortunately the air flow in the pods is so poor that it’s difficult to sleep without the door open. The room was so hot and humid that my partner and I were soaked in sweat all night as well. I booked a locker to keep our valuables in for a supposedly refundable €20. When we left in the morning the property manager was not there. I hung the locker key in the locker, sent a photo to the owner asking for the €20. It’s been about a month and I still haven’t received a response. Bathrooms were disgusting and my 5’2” partner barely had enough room to sit on the toilet because the room is so narrow. Someone smeared sh\*t all over the toilet paper roll and it was still like that when we left. I’m not one to complain typically. I’m aware that hostels are affordable for a reason and don’t expect much. But this was a terrible stay. ##### Ryan Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hugh Dec 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice central and private ##### Hugh Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Darren Apr 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Basic, small, noisy, no facilities ##### Darren Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Elianq Nov 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely stay, fun little space pods.

And appreciate this isn’t necessarily down to the hostel, but the people we shared a room with woke us up multiple times when drunk and returning and talking and laughing. We didn’t sleep on the second night. ##### Jess Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Nicolas Mar 10, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hostel doesn't have a reception nor staff, you get a code to a capsule in a room with 8 capsules. People in the room were occupying all the capsules In the room on arrival ignoring if it was theirs or not. You can't manage a hostel like that. ##### Nicolas Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Keiran Apr 15, 2025 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities As a hostel, you get what you pay for. The sleeping pods are a unique experience and quite comfortable, but they can be noisy when you move. The property should consider adding lockers for guests to store their belongings, even if there's a small fee, as it's better than leaving luggage in unsecured pods or on the floor. The communal room would benefit from a sink for washing dirty dishes instead of having to go to the toilets. We had to do this twice because dirty cups were left out by other guests. Our main issue was the noise from other guests coming back at night, which woke us up at 1:30 AM due to loud talking and banging. ##### Keiran Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025
