I set it up to 100 samples. It's still a little grainy in darker areas.
That looks really good, although 100 samples may be too much. Since you're still getting a lot of noise in shadows, you need to try another trick. There's quite a few settings which need to be tweaked to clear up noise and fireflies in Cycles. None of the default settings are optimized, unfortunately. Here's an official source of some tricks to help.

It explains where noise comes from, how to adjust bounces, filter glossy rays and caustics, control light falloff, sampling, and clamping fireflies.
