Eamons place is in a quiet area. If you want to visit Dublin but also want to get a good nights sleep this is the right place. It is about 10 minutes by bus get to the city centre of Dublin. We however enjoyed walking by foot into the city. This also only took 30-40 minutes and was a great way to start the day. You can pass through St Stephen's Green park on your way into the city centre and can stop on your way to get some good breakfast at one of the coffee shops.
