My daughter and I stayed at Sarah's place for 10 days as our base for exploring Ireland, and we couldn't have been happier. Sarah's place is as described and is even better than the photos suggest. It's a very comfortable space with all the living space on the first floor except for the 2nd toilet that's located on the loft. It's beautifully decorated, with lots of natural lighting coming in, but there are also lots of over head lighting as well. We love the space. For public transport, it's very close to the Luas train station that's a 5 minute walk away, that will wisk you to St Stephens Green/Grafton St in 13 mins. Literally. Trains come every 5-10 mins. Luas train is a very modern train and is a pleasure to ride into town. Dundrum is safe, but she does have an alarm in the apt for the added security. We loved coming back after a long day of touring. We highly recommend Sarah's place, it did not disappoint. And of course, Sarah is a great host. Thanks so much for your hospitality. We had a wonderful holiday. We hope to come visit again.
