rose was a really nice and helpful hostess, we didn't see much of each other, but when we were both there i always felt comfortable. The bathroom and room cannot be locked, but privacy was always maintained (e.g. the bathroom door is closed, meaning it is occupied). The location is great, bus connections can be reached in a few minutes and Dublin city center can be easily explored on foot. The room is very rudimentary, unfortunately there is no real space to stow the clothes, only a small dessert and the apartment is very noisy. I felt comfortable, but I don't find the price-performance ratio appropriate.
