Gerard's apartment at Docklands is amazing. We arrived on Christmas Day and there were no problems with us checking in early, and his daughter Frances provided a thorough explanation and tour of the space as well as the building's security. They also provided a small Christmas tree which was really nice. The apartment is spacious with stunning views of the docks, and is very accessible from the city. There is a free tram stop down the street as well as numerous restaurants and shops on the water a few steps away. Gerard called to check in after the first day which was very nice and quickly responded to all correspondence throughout the booking process. I would absolutely recommend staying here.
