Rose provides a comfortable room and convenient location for seeing County Carlow. House is a quick five minute cab ride from the city center. Grocery stores are close by. Train station as well as the coach/bus park are a 25-35 minute walk. Early Viking settlement of Waterford is a hour train ride south. The pet of the house “Lady” is also good company if you like dogs. Note that this is a smoking house, and as this is the owner’s residence, she offers use of the kitchen after 9am to 7pm. I had a pleasant stay and found the location a great alternative to the big city congestion of Dublin.
