I rented a room at Dublin Generator
I stayed at Generator Dublin and this was the most disturbing experience I have had in over 40 countries.
After accidentally oversleeping, I asked to extend my stay. I was told I had to pay €70 or I would be removed immediately. Later I saw the same room listed on Airbnb for €44.50. Shortly after, two men came to my room and told me I had to leave at once.
While packing my belongings and taking a quick shower, my backpack disappeared from inside the property.
Inside were:
My passport
Multiple laptops (including two worth €2,500 each)
A backup phone
Valuable personal belongings
The total loss is approximately €3,500+.
When I reported this, I was told it was “not their responsibility.” No serious effort was made to investigate the situation in front of me. I was not shown any attempt to review CCTV. Instead, I was required to leave the premises immediately.
Losing your passport and essential work equipment in a foreign country is extremely serious. What made this experience even worse was the complete lack of support, urgency, or visible concern.
I cannot make accusations. I can only describe what happened: my belongings disappeared inside the property, and I left without answers.
A police report has been filed.
I strongly advise future guests to consider the level of security and response they expect when staying here. In my case, I felt unsupported, unprotected, and dismissed during a very serious situation.
