I stayed on the upstairs apartment of Ali's Georgian house for a month. I'm currently on a round-the-world trip and this was by far my favorite Airbnb of everywhere I've stayed! The house is down a quiet alley just off the main street in Ranelagh so you'll get peace and quiet at home but be just around the corner from amazing restaurants and pubs. The apartment itself was cozy and relaxing. It was beautifully decorated, had shelves full of books in the living room and a fully equipped kitchen. I did lots of cooking and never felt like I was missing anything. Ali stocked the fridge with milk, eggs, bread, butter and jam upon arrival. She also left some cookies and cereal. It was nice to wake up my first day there to have breakfast and coffee without a trip to the store... and the beers she left for the night I arrived. She was a delight of a host during the entire stay. I can't say enough good things about the neighborhood, too. Every local person I spoke to said it was one of the best if not the best neighborhood in Dublin. I will be returning to Dublin soon and can't wait to stay at Ali's again!
