Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a barbecue. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property.

Guests at the hostel will be able to enjoy activities in and around Mountmellick, like hiking and cycling. It was a very cool experience staying in the Forum Mountmellick. The bedrooms were very clean and the beds super comfy. The kids loved the bunk beds. The power in the showers was super. The renovated church, kitchen and eating areas were all fantastic and there was a lovely calm and relaxed atmosphere throughout the accommodation. Our host Colette was extremely welcoming and a great source of information about the local area. The accommodation is a great base to visit loads of really great attractions in Loais and there are some lovely takeaways in the town too, so you can bring dinner back and enjoy in the Forum. Overall our stay was fantastic and we would highly recommend staying at the Forum Mountmellick.

Ashfield Hostel is ideal for travellers or backpackers needing a low-cost base in Dublin. The hostel has all ensuite rooms (private bathroom), free Wi-Fi and bed linen, and no curfew. There are vending machines with drinks and light snacks. It was an awesome experience for me travelling alone for the first time. The staff were exceptional. The location of the place is accessible to all modes of transportation. The availability of resources was helpful. The access to kitchen, tour information and ambience was too good.
