We stayed here for a few nights and it was a lovely!
We did not get to meet Eddie as he was on holiday. Subsitute Eddie was a nice lady named Carol. She was informative and helpful when need be.
Our apartment was quaint and a little on the funky eclectic side. If I was paying attention I would have picked one of the other rooms to rent. (funky loft looked fun!)
The apartment was about 40 min walking distance from Temple bar/city center area. Straight shot along the river. Or you can straight shot it along the tram line (Lues) to O'Connell street.
The Hop On Hop Off tour bus stop is 5 mins walk across Phoenix park.
It's in a great spot and is pretty quiet after dark.
Great spot. I would recommend it.
