I think this place shouldn't even be on AirBnB. It is bad by all standards and extremely overpriced - paid 2K euro for a month.
Firstly, the owner doesn't even show his face on the profile pic. His name is missing. I honestly had doubts that it's his apartment. It might be a sublet.
Secondly, the description is way off. There was no desk - had to ask for it. The place is cold. The toilet doesn't work properly. The carpenting is old. There is a foul smell throughout the property.
It has lots of spiders and silverfish. The walls are super thin and you can hear the neighbours downstairs. Whenever the downstairs neighbour takes a shower a water pump in the attic starts and produces this loud whistling noise.
The worst thing is the bed. Bed linens and pillow cases smell and have stains on them.
Third, yeah, the location is not that far off Dublin downtown, but it does not seem to be the best / safest area.
Overall, it's the worst AirBnB experience I've had. Sorry, Michael, or whatever your real name might be.
