If you're looking for an experienced host in Dublin, Karin is it. She provided A LOT of helpful information in her manual - in fact, she could write a guidebook! She was friendly and helpful without being nosy or intrusive. The apartment was beautiful, and fully stocked with breakfast, books, some bathroom supplies and nice linens. The location is central, but not too loud. We would definitely stay in this beautiful unit again when we return to Ireland.
