We loved our stay at Catherine's. It was a very comfortable 3-bedroom top floor apartment with a great view on a clear day. Being so close to the Luas (tram) stop was really handy. We went into Dublin City Centre several times. The trip took about 40 minutes. Not having to find parking in town and being able to have a drink was great.
The area itself was quiet with mostly just new apartment blocks and one local Spar shop withing walking distance. If there were other close convenience stores, we didn't see them.
Catherine was very responsive with a couple of questions we had. No complaints. Would stay there again.
