I highly recommend a stay at Paul and Jamie’s place! We booked our last night in Dublin here and wished we had more nights to stay. The location is perfect, as it is close to the Temple Bar area but removed enough that it is not too noisy. Although the street seems busy, with the window closed we didn’t hear much. It was our best nights sleep after a week all over Dublin/Ireland. It’s above a cute cafe and it feels extremely safe. We met Suzanne at check in and she was so nice! The hot water works (which we discovered wasn’t true other places), the apartment is clean, and there’s a book of recommendations of local spots. Overall, a great place!
Also, check in is at 3pm. We weren’t able to get in earlier and the hosts meet you at check in at this spot, but it was not a problem at all as there’s a place to leave your bags right down the block through the BagBnB app. Very convenient!
