Pat was a great host who went out of her way to meet us during check in.
Her place is perfect. The location is close to everything, and transit if you really need it. Everything is in walking distance, and if not there is a bus closeby that will take you to where you need to go. However, it is still quiet which is a nice balance. As other reviewers had mentioned, there are quite a few locks in place, which made us feel really safe. The space is good for one or two people, and there is a nice balcony overlooking the garden area as well.
The guest recommendations book was a nice touch and on arrival Pat also gave us lots of recommendations, which was helpful.
If you are interested in staying in Dublin City Center we highly recommend Pats place.
