We traveled to Ireland for my parents 40th wedding anniversary, there were 6 of us and Colin's place had plenty of space for us. The balcony overlooking the street was a great place to end the evening. Colin and his family own the bar below and it is a great place to stop in for a drink. We had a hiccup in the beginning of our trip and Colin went above and beyond to make sure we were settled in and that we got what we needed to. He was available for tips throughout our stay. I'd highly recommend this place if you are traveling with a few people and trying to get a sense of Dublin. We could walk pretty much anywhere we wanted to get to. Guinness is technically walkable but we did end up taking a taxi past it to the jail and old hospital.
