The residence in Ranelagh is, in a word, superb in every respect. The facility has been remodeled and rebuilt to provide a wonderful separate entrance to the rental units that is both secure and very private. The hallway is clean, well-lit, and very updated and modern. The room was spotlessly clean, comfortably furnished, and unbelievably quiet, especially given the fact that the buidling is located in the heart of Dublin. The bathroom was likewise spotless and had a very nice shower. The house is located in a very, very nice, upscale area of Dublin amidst foreign embassies and large, gravious Georgian townhomes. It is a short walk to St. Stephan's Green, but also offers quick acces through the LUAS light rail system (a few blocks away) and the Dublin Bus service (around the corner). There are also several wonderful restaurants and pubs within a couple of blocks of the house. Eamonn is wonderful. He is a gracious, welcoming host who, having lived much of his life in this neighborhood, is a great resource if you require advice or guidance on the wheres and hows of getting around the place. All in all, this is a perfect little place to stay in Dublin. I will definitely be back and thank Eamonn for his hospitality.
