This place is in a great location and buses and luas are close by. It has a nice village atmosphere with good restaurants and food shops and is very quiet. Mary was very helpful with directions and orientation. I thought I'd be sharing a bath with one other person but there were 3 others and no hand washing (important to me as it was the end of my trip). A yoga studio is at the back of the house with classes in late afternoon, so voices and footsteps were not expected.
