This was a wonderful place to stay. It is even bigger than it looks in the pictures (a big living area with high ceilings, and there is a little hallway attaching the bedroom and bathroom). We found this place to be a very nice refuge after long days in and around Dublin, an we cooked and did laundry without any problem as the apartment was well-equipped with cooking and cleaning supplies. Very nice place and would highly recommend-it definitely felt like you were in your own apartment. We didn't see the hosts too often, who were very kind, but when we saw Eileen's husband as we were carrying out the trash one day, he said not to bother and just to leave it at the bottom of the stairs. Because this area is in the north, it is a wee bit rough around the edges, but my mother-in-law and I still felt completely comfortable, even walking around in the evening. It was easy to walk to the city center and the wonderful botanical gardens too (which has a very nice restaurant). Stay here!!!
