We really enjoyed staying at Sophie’s house in Phibsborough. We found the location to be brilliant and frequently walked into Dublin City centre - nearby there are excellent pubs, a decent supermarket and a world class coffee shop!! If you want to take the bus it is very close to a major route road. One thing to be aware of is that parking is a problem. Fortunately we did not have a car, but parking on Leinster Street North is limited to 3 hrs and on the one occasion we needed a car parking space we had to use the large car park next to the Mater Hospital. Sophie was very friendly and a great communicator both before and during our stay. We would certainly stay again if we visit Dublin.
