I had a wonderful 11 night stay at Ali's place in Ranelagh. The apartment is on a very quiet street, with easy access to the Luas and busses, and nearby to a few pubs and supermarkets. Ali's mom was very nice to leave a stocked fridge for me upon arrival after a long trip to Dublin. Ali herself was extremely responsive during the say. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a stay at Ali's to anyone!
