The room was exactly as described and just what I wanted: simple, clean and a great location. Micheal and his wife were very welcoming and happy to advise on local recommendations etc. As well as the DART railway station being only 5 minutes' walk away, there is also a good main bus route into town that is only a further minute's walk away from the DART station, giving further transport flexibility. Also had a lazy Sunday brunch in nearby Sandymount's village centre on Micheal's recommendation which was brilliant - a great vibe with loads of free Sunday papers to read and excellent food and coffee. I will be staying here again.
