If you are comfortable with a youth hostel or college apartment quality, then you will be fine here. If you expect a clean or well-maintained accommodation, then you will likely find this place unsuitable. The entry to the building has a back alley feel, and the accommodation is old and poorly maintained. Rodrigo and his partner were very helpful and quick to respond. We were given a recommendation to a great Italian restaurant (Wallace’s Asti) that is close by, and was some of the best Italian outside Italy we’ve had. Treat yourself if you’re staying in this place. Dublin housing is way over-priced as demonstrated by the cost of this accommodation.
