I loved tho Moat Lodge and its wonderful hostess/owner Astrid. The room was everything I needed it to be, clean and comfortable. The full Irish breakfast was delicious. The bathrooms were fully updated and tiled, lots of clean towels and complimentary shampoo and lotion. If you are looking for central Dublin, this isn't it. Lucan is a small village but a part of suburban Dublin. It has its own high street with banks, pubs, grocery and drug stores. Lucan is on the main road and the Airport hopper bus,(14.00 Euros each way if you don't book online but only 9.00 if you do) stops a short walking distance to the Lodge. I took the local bus into Dublin centre each day and it took about 25-30 minutes. I would certainly stay there again.
