Denis and his wife are very kind and *extremely* helpful and truly go out of their way to help their guests! The annexe is a terrific place to stay: it's a separate, self-contained unit tucked away in the back garden. The neighborhood is quiet, but public transportation into town is nearby, as is Kilmainham Gaol and the Irish Museum of Modern Art. There are (basic) cooking facilities in the annexe and a great shower, as well. Definitely a place I would recommend staying! 🙂
