I stayed in Ali's lovely house in Ranelagh for three weeks in June 2016. The house is in a quiet lane at walking distance to LUAS stations Ranelagh and Beechwood, in a lively neighbourhood with many pubs, restaurants and shops.
The communication with Ali was very smooth at all times, she replied to any message I sent ppromptly although she was in NYC during most of my stay and even sorted out the initial problem I had with the wifi connection from across the ocean.
I felt very welcome from the second I entered the house, greeted by a vase of fresh tulips and chocolate biscuits on the table as well as fresh bread, eggs, butter, milk and orange juice in the kitchen! How kind and condiderate!
It is a house with character, decorated with taste, a home away from home ..
I'd warmly recommend anybody visiting Dublin to stay at Collier's house and I'll definitely do the same the next time I visit this great city with great, friendly people!
