Our stay in Dublin with Karin in her flat was fantastic. We were there for three nights over St. Patrick's Day. We arrived to the flat about 2 hours earlier than expected but Karin graciously sat with us for over an hour, discussing the neighborhood, local restaurants and good haunts. She left us fresh fruit, banana bread and local eggs, which was a very nice touch. The flat is described perfectly and a beautiful place to stay - a 5-minute walk to O'Connell Street and about a 15-20 minute walk down to Temple Bar. Highly recommended for short stays in Dublin!
