My wife and I had a great time in Dublin staying in this wonderful space tucked away from all the bustle of the city. We utilized the bus system to get around (airport, O'Connell st., train station, etc...though, I admit, it took a day or so to get use to planning trips via the proper bus lines) and found the walks into the city center and Phoenix park pleasant, too. There are some great places to eat nearby, and ample facilities for saving some money and eating in. A wonderful place, I do not hesitate to highly recommend it, you will not be dissapointed!
