Garrett and his brother Ronan were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, even leaving a present in the flat for my dad, whose 80th birthday we were celebrating. Their place is cosy, tastefully decorated and perfectly situated - in the centre of the centre - with great views over to Dublin Castle. The materials sent to me by Garrett - lists of the best pubs, cafes and restaurants nearby, with emphasis on places off the tourist trail - gave us a terrific insider's angle on the city. I would without hesitation recommend this listing and its hosts.
