A thoughtful and intelligent host; Niall is particularly adept at making you feel comfortable in his home. Definitely ask him for local recommendations especially for restaurants or if you're into coffee.
Dublin's main shopping streets are under a ten minute walk away, so the townhouse is very centrally located. I didn't need to take public transport at all during my stay, though buses and trams are nearby.
Construction is ongoing, as many of the other reviews have stated, but if you're not picky and are eating meals out this isn't an issue. To be honest, at the end of the day the guest room is comfortable, the bathroom floor is warm, the Wi-Fi is fast, and it's a good value for central Dublin.
