Staying at Dermots place is perfect if you are looking to stay in a traditional irish house with comfortable beds and a very friendly host. Dermot makes you feel very welcome and has tips for places to go if you request it. There is also a folder with tourist attractions in the room which you can browse through. Dermot offers a great breakfast which also caters to vegetarians and vegans. There is a sitting room with a stove oven which would be perfect to read in on a wet night in winter. The house is located about a 20-25 minute walk from temple bar or you could get a bus (100m down the road) into the city centre. Near to the house is a new restaurant called Urban 8 which serves good food at an okay price. We enjoyed our stay and would reccomend it for anyone travelling to Dublin looking for good value for their money.
