Susan is a wonderful host and person! She has tons of tips for excellent restaurants in the neighborhood - we tried a few of them, and they were great! Her youghurt w fresh fruit and granola is to die for! I would go back just for that! :)
The location is spot on - everything you need is just around the corner, and a MUCH cooler hood than eg around Temple Bar! The room is quiet and with a really nice bed & very good bathroom.
