    I don't think that the Roches multistory is 24 hour. However, Sleepzone may have an arrangement made somewhere.

    On the other end of town there's Barnacles on Quay St. Claddagh (Jurys) carpark is beside it, and they do an overnight rate.

    You could also park in Merchants Road carpark, but it's a bit away from either hostel (unless Kinlay House is still on the corner of Merchants Road).

    \i wouldn't be too sure about leaving a car overnight on Dyke Road. The carpark behind county buildings only opens to the public at weekends, iirc.

    Another Hostel worth mentioning is the new one on foster court (Someone please put me out of my misery and remind me of the name!). Ive looked in while walking past and it looks quite nice. No beer allowed though

    It's not.

    Kinlay House is still there. And having stayed both there and in Sleepzone, I'd definitely recommend Kinlay. Far nicer atmosphere, and slightly larger rooms.


    But overall, check out www.hostelworld.com Review from real people who've stayed there recently.
