Rathgar is a lovely area in Dublin. The location is right next to bus transportation that gets you to city centre within 10-15 minutes which was very convenient for our needs. There are shops within a 2 minute walk, including a grocery store, butcher, bakery, a pub, a few cafes, and a bank. The home had nice comforting touches and was pet friendly. The host was available and helpful when we reached out.
I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends and family.
