We flew in from Australia via the UK. We had an absolute brilliant stay in Shanes apartment in Dublin, it was close to Dublin city and the apartment was furnished exactly like the pictures - fantastic interior design. We loved the special welcome sign and the chocolates and Guiness on arrival! Such a thoughtful gesture. I would recommend staying here if you have a 3-4 day quick city tour on Dublin as it is very central and close to all the attractions within walking distance.
