Mike's place is very convenient, clean, and quiet. He is a lovely host who made an effort to help our trip in Dublin run as smoothly as possible. Although close to Croke Park (check out the schedule for any events happening there, since you'll be staying so close by), the street is quiet, even on match days. He also gave us great food recommendations--we tried them all and went to some of them multiple times. We would definitely choose to stay here again if we return to Dublin in the future!
