We loved our stay at John's place. It was in a really nice location, really close to the Temple bar area (just across the river) but still very quiet. Very cosy and comfortable with all amenities. Tesco was just across the road and a few fast food burger joints next door. John was a wonderful host, and had even left us wine and chocolates before we arrived. He was super quick in answering any questions we had, and was really helpful in suggestions for our trip. We would absolutely not hesitate in recommending Johns apartment for a stay in Dublin!
