With this being my first trip to Dublin, I didn't quite know the area of the apartment. It's right in the heart of the bustling and lively Temple Bar with an awesome birds eye view of The Temple Bar. It was perfectly centrally located for exploring the city and very close to the bus routes needed. The apartment was nice, but the location was definitely the highlight for our needs. With that mentioned and all of the bar festivities happening until the early morning, it did get a bit loud at times. Just a fair warning that it isn't a secluded apartment, but that should seem pretty obvious. Marie's open communication was incredible with lining up the key exchange. We just got off a long day of travel and arrived very early in the morning and she made arrangements and was very quick to respond to messages. It was so helpful with how she handled everything. It was a pleasure to stay in her place and it made our time in Dublin so much fun!
