As many others have noted, Karin is a gracious host and makes her guests feel welcomed. The apartment is in an immaculately maintained Georgian-style home a few blocks north of the Liffey River. We are walkers so the somewhat steep ascent on the way back to the apartment others have mentioned was not an issue for us. Karin provided much appreciated breakfast items (milk, eggs, fruit, coffee, tea, etc.) so that we could ease into the four days we spent in Dublin before driving to other parts of Ireland. We would recommend this apartment without hesitation. Thank you, Karin, for getting our trip off to such a wonderful start.
