We loved our stay here. It's a lovely quiet area but still great for cafes, restaurants and some good pubs. We walked everywhere including into the centre of Dublin which is 30 minutes. But it's right on a bus route as well and easy to get to from the airport bus.
Ben's place is a beautiful Georgian house and having the basement floor gives you lots of privacy and the amenities of a little kitchen. We had everything we needed. The house has its original sash windows so there is a little traffic noise. But for Dublin this is a quiet area and no noise from revellers. We are very comfortable and slept well.
Ben was a great host, attentive and welcoming. Making sure we were met on arrival​ and had everything we needed.
