My girlfriend and me have been at Eddie's place for 2 nights. Communication was very easy, Eddie replied fast. He welcomed us very nicely, had a map of Dublin for us and gave us tips about what to do during our time there. We were also offered tea and coffee each time we saw him :) The itself is spacious and has a large window to the little garden. Thus, it is quiet in the night. It is not far to the city center by bus or even by foot. You should stay at Eddie's apartement!
