This is a great place to stay if you want to be away from the bustle of Dublin, while still being close by. Getting into the city was not a problem. Buses run often, and Killester train station is close by. Louise was very helpful. My phone had died and would not charge, so she gave me a cord to charge it with. She showed me how to use appliances, so I could make my own breakfast. I would recommend her place if you just need somewhere to stay, but it can be a bit noisey at times with people coming and going. If you had a busy day of exploring, you fall asleep fast enough, so this isn't a problem. Louise was very easy to communicate with and gave me great ideas for places to see.
