Garrett was very accommodating about the time of our arrival, and we received a warm welcome from his wife at the apartment. The flat is very nicely decorated and felt like home as soon as we arrived. The location is excellent, so close to sites, shopping, restaurants, and pubs. It was so convenient to just walk for a block or two to all sorts of things we wanted to see and do. The flat has amazing views of City Hall and Dublin Castle, as well as Christ Church. The apartment was spotless and clean, and there was a great selection of Ireland and Dublin guidebooks in the living room which were very helpful. The only draw back to this apartment is that it was very loud over night with people on the street coming home late from the pubs. Each night we were woken up been 2am-4am with people yelling outside - but that is part of staying in Temple Bar with all of the tourists and activity, which we knew when we decided to rent the apartment, and is in no way Garrett's fault. Just a warning if you plan to stay with young children, probably not a good area if you are a light sleeper. All in all excellent flat, best Airbnb experience so far! Thanks Garrett for your hospitality!
