This was my first visit to Ireland and I really enjoyed staying at Maeve's place in Clontarf. Although it isn't exactly in the city centre, it's a more affordable, an accessible neighbourhood with a good coastal view and a better option. It's a very quiet and calm area and I was lucky to spot a small fox roaming around on one night, I have no idea where it came from! Maeve made sure my room was warm and I was always surprised to find it tidied up at the end of everyday, with new towels too.
