Polly's flat is an incredible place to stay--just blocks from Iveagh Gardens, St. Stephen's Green, and Merrion Square. We walked everywhere in Dublin easily. I enjoyed staying in the south side of the city much more than I did the north on previous trip. Not to mention that Polly's neighborhood and house are full-on gorgeous Georgian architecture. The flat is in the basement of the house, but you wouldn't think it: lots of light, beautifully and stylishly renovated, and spacious (three people fit with plenty of room to spare). Because you are below the street level, there is a bit of noise from the pipes when the shower is on, etc, but it never bothered us at night. Stay here if you want a reasonably priced, very nice place in a fantastic location!
