We had an apartment right in the heart of Dublin. The communication with our host was perfect and he himself was very accommodating when it came to our requests. Perfect for 4 people and well equipped. A beautiful view of the city in the living room and kitchen, a quiet location to the back yard by the bedrooms. There is no shelf for various small items in the bathroom, but it works that way.
Overall, a very good accommodation and many sights can be reached on foot or by bus in a short time.
Maybe another time again !
