Stayed with Micheal and his wife for 3 nights. They are a lovely and welcoming couple, felt very comfortable with them as a solo female traveler. The room is small but cozy. Twin bed, fluffy blanket, nice window, desk, great Wifi, and was able to do laundry, as well. It's within walking distance to the DART which takes you to central Dublin quite quickly, and the bus is across the street. The town of Sandymount has some cute restaurants and shops. Didn't make it to the beach but hear it's wonderful! The neighborhood is quiet and safe, much prefer staying here than in the city. Will stay here again if I'm in Dublin!
