Edward's place was a great choice for our trip to Dublin. It's located within 30min walk of most major attractions in Dublin, yet was quite quiet at night. The road is a main road but the traffic is very reasonable. It's a little far to the conference centre but I found the walk or bus to be very nice. In retrospect, a bike rental along the Grand Canal would be have perfect.
Edward had tons of great suggestions for tours and attractions. He responded quickly with advice about transit when asked.
Edward's place was clean, comfortable and had all the amenities required for eating in, if desired. Although with innumerable great restaurants it was hard to make that decision.
I was a little worried about the self-check process, but it went very smoothly on arrival. No complaints.
