First, the definite positives:
• Great location: close to bus stop and Luas, only 15 minutes to the city center. Lovely, walkable neighborhood!
• Convenient local shops: grocery stores, pharmacy, pub, coffee shop are all very close!
• Apartment has everything you could need and is a good size. It is clean, kitchen is well-stocked, and it is fabulous to have a washer and dryer!
• Live-on-site host/assistant is very knowledgeable and welcoming!
Negatives:
• The mattresses were all uncomfortable and need to be replaced. The two mattresses in the pull-out couches were so uncomfortable (unusable) that our daughter ended up sleeping on the couch cushions instead.
• This apartment is on the ground floor, so there are no large windows for ventilation, I’m assuming for security. But on 5 warm, humid days we desperately needed some fresh air! The addition of a few fans would help. WARNING: The tiny window in the bedroom opens right next to the back door, where other guests make lots of noise at all hours coming and going! Don’t open it (for afore mentioned ventilation) unless you are a very deep sleeper.
All in all, if the mattresses were replaced and fans added we would definitely stay here again.
