I would recommend Bob's place to people who are either traveling alone or with one other companion. It is nice, quiet place not too far from all points in Dublin. The shops and restaurants are near by but if you need a cab, they are easy to get right on the main road. Bob was quick with his responses leading up to my checking in. He had welcoming tea and lots of advice on things to see and do while in Dublin. Check out was flexible which was good for me so I didn't have to rush out.
