Cathal was quite fine as a host - although he used the apartment while I was there, I very much felt like I had it to myself (which was indeed the case for more than half the time I was there). The apartment itself, and room, are excellent - clean, tidy, and very tastefully furnished, with all necessary appliances and the like: very much as it appears in the description. The neighbourhood was also fine, and, as advertised, very centrally located - no more than a five to ten minute walk to the heart of Dublin. Over-all, my experience with the rental was entirely positive.
