Pat's place is in a great location if you want to be part of the main tourist district. It is a hop skip and a jump away, which keeps the place quiet, but an easy stumble from the action. The Airport bus is around the corner too for convenience along with small supermarket for those that want to use the kitchen. The place is great for a single person or a couple. Small and compact. Great hot water for your showers, which is sometimes hard to come by in Dublin accommodations. Small balcony that looks into a quiet courtyard for those that like the fresh air. Lower end furniture, but all comfy, plus you will probably be out and about in the city. Value for money for sure if location is a factor. Would defiantly stay again.
