Our arrival happened to coincide with Karin needing to go to the airport so she arranged to have a neighbour let us in.

The apartment has been lovingly restored to it's former Georgian glory and has all the amenities one could ask for, including a beautiful working fireplace. Though the ceiling is low in the balcony bedroom, it feels very cosy. The kitchen was well-stocked with basic breakfast supplies, which is always a bonus when all you really want is a cuppa while you figure out your surroundings.

Unfortunately we only met Karin briefly one day when we were rushing off to catch a bus tour to Newgrange (a must do!) and would've loved to have chatted with her about the history of the building, neighbourhood, etc. We did however eat a a number of restaurants that she recommended and they were all fantastic!

We hope to come back again in the future.

Thanks Karin!
