Conveniently situated to access the city centre yet far enough out to enjoy some quiet. Regular buses connect with O'Connell Street for a fare of around 3E. The building is easy to find and the host's communication of information was excellent. The studio we had was small in size but very comfortable and well maintained. The Botanic Gardens [less than 5 mins walk] were well worth a visit. Lots of takeaways nearby mean all tastes are catered for and there are local shops too. Local pubs [John Kavanagh's aka The Gravediggers and Hedigan's Brian Boru] were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended.
