Mary was a fantastic host. she provided me additional assistance with getting parking on the street outside at the last second when I decided to rent a car. She was also able to provide advice on what to do and see on my stay. The location is Ideal, everything that I wanted to see in Dublin was within walking distance. The neighborhood is very safe and there are many small businesses and restaurants in the are worth checking out. I had a great time, and highly recommend this location if anyone is planning a solo trip to Ireland in the near future.
