What a charming, perfect spot for 2-4 people visiting Dublin. The flat is centrally located (only a <10-minute walk to Guinness, 10-15 min to Temple Bar/Dublin Castle) and sits in a beautiful neighborhood that represents the best of "New" and "Old" Ireland (it sits above a queer bar, but on a street with plenty of longtime locally owned shops). Definitely worth it to stop in for drinks anywhere along the street on your way out/back from the sights.
As for our host, Lucian was very responsive to questions and concerns. Check-in and check-out were easy. The flat was stocked with fresh linens and towels, a washer/dryer, and cookware. Had to run out to the store for a couple basics, but it didn't detract from the experience at all.
Thank you Lucian!
