Our experience of Denis' apartment was fantastic from start to finish! Denis had excellent communication with us before we arrived and was very helpful with answering our questions. When we arrived Denis showed us around and gave us very helpful tourist information for our stay. Denis was always available to help us (and he made sure we knew this) when we needed and when Denis was not around, Pete was always very helpful and friendly to us (making phone calls etc). Our flight coming home was in the evening and Denis allowed us to keep our suitcases in the apartment and use it until we were ready to leave so that we didn't have to pull them around Dublin city on our last day - he really went the extra mile for us!
The apartment was fantastic! It was cosy and relaxing and really made us feel at home. Denis provided lots of extra little touches which made his hosting skills stand out. For example, provided eggs, bread and milk for our arrival but also ensuring there was tea, coffee available for our stay. This is really helpful when you have been up since the early hours for your journey and you just need a cup of tea!
The location was absolutely spot on for us! The apartment is just outside of Dublin city but there is tram stop just metres away from the property which made the commute so easy! It took us 10 minutes to get into the heart of Dublin and we never waited more than 5 minutes for a tram. If you're feeling like a walk, it only took us 30 minutes to walk in. Denis recommended for us to purchase a LEAP card (we bought ours from Spar in the airport) and this cost 20 euros which gave us UNLIMITED travel on buses, trams and some trains for 72 hours. It was perfect and saved us a lot of money.
All in all, it was a fabulous experience which made our trip so much more enjoyable! Great hosting makes such a difference! We will definitely stay here again in the future.
