The apartment is absolutely beautiful and in a neighborhood where you feel like you're living as a local rather than in the busy tourist areas, but not too far away from the places you'll want to visit - whether by car or on foot. Expensive, but so is everything in Dublin and the place is very nice and well equipped. I had a great month-long stay once the initial issues of heating were fixed (they bought space heaters for the bedrooms when the ones in the apartment weren't giving off enough heat) and once I was only communicating with the management company. Why an Airbnb host would give you their phone number, tell you that it's easier to communicate directly, specifically bring up concerns of fire safety related to the space heaters, and then the next day be angry that you sent them a message updating them on a situation where fire alarms were going off for nearly an hour, I don't know. It definitely soured my experience at the beginning, but once communication was only done through management, I was able to enjoy my stay.
