This is a cute apartment located in a perfect area for exploring Dublin. It's in an interesting non-touristy neighborhood but the center of Dublin is easily accessible either by a 20-30 minute walk or on the tram (get a Leap card if staying 3 days). Ian was an amazing host. We were with another couple who got in about 6:00 am, we got in at 9:00 am, Ian met both of us to let us in and show us around. The downstairs shower is fabulous - lots of hot water with light filtering in through glass bricks. Unfortunately the towels were a little rough but maybe they helped us get over our jet lag early! The living room is a little small for 2 couples but with all of Dublin to explore we didn't spend much time socializing at home. Ian had a lot of great suggestions about what to do. A great bakery, the Green Door, is a few blocks from his apartment as is The Cobblestone - a pub with terrific traditional music.
