Myself, my wife and our 2 year old daughter stayed at Gavins place for 1 week from 27th October - 3rd November.
Overall it was a lovely stay, the apartment was warm, easy to find, nicely decorated and in a fantastic location central to town and a short walk to Rathmines for pubs and restaurants and a supermarket. Parking was free and relatively easy to get a space. It would be perfectly suited to a young couple or group of friends.
The only issues we had with it is that it isn't really family friendly. It is up 2 flights of stairs in the attic and while that is fine for us, it was a struggle with our luggage and our 2 year old. Add to that there is a weird landing that has no rail on it and is very dangerous for toddlers and should be closed off. The entrance, foyer and staircases are quite dirty as well and again not suitable for small children. The cutlery, plates, cups and glasses were not clean and we had to wash them before we used them. There is no kids cutlery or plastic plates, there is no dishwasher and the cooking utensils were too small to make a family meal with only one small milk pan. There should be a big pot and a bigger frying pan the one that was there was rusty. There are a few repairs that should be made too, the cupboard in the kitchen is broken. Also the cleaning products were all low down in easy reach of a toddler and should be stored in the higher cupboards.
The duvet cover did not fit the duvet and it also didn't fit the bed. The other bedding could have done with an iron as well.
None of that really had a negative impact on our stay there, I'm just mentioning it as it shouldn't be advertised as family friendly without these improvements and safety measures in place.
We really did enjoy our stay there and would stay again.
