Lex's place is outstanding and Lex is an excellent host. The house is like a mini museum of trinkets and interesting stuff. It has everything you would need including an excellent internet radio in the kitchen which I now may buy one myself. The location of his house is in the hip part of town and far enough away from the chaos of Temple bar while being in easy walking distance of it. The house was perfect for our needs and accommodated all five of us (two couples and a single) with ease. We had a very comfortable stay. The neighbours were great too (Thanks Annette!). We all would highly recommend staying at Lex's place - to the point the some of us want to live in it permanently :)
