This apartment couldn't have been in a better location for getting around Dublin and Ireland! First off, Nita the host met us to take us to the apartment and explain the different things to better our stay. She was very responsive to our questions and had no problem meeting us at a later check-in time (as every single one of our trains and flights were late that day). Over the next few days, we realized how perfect this apartment was for us. The complex is fairly quiet; you can sometimes hear pedestrian traffic at night on the weekends, but you're in a large city and is to be expected. Windows were able to be opened to catch a breeze in the morning and the heaters are able to be adjusted. The bathroom was spotless and had a very nice shower. The kitchen had all appliances needed and the washer/dryer was a great addition. The beds were comfy, as well as the couch. In the TV stand was a bunch of maps and tour guides, so that was also helpful. There is a Luas (city tram) station nearly right across the road and got us to many sightseeing locations in the city. About a 5 minute walk down to O'Connell is a bus station, which houses the DoDublin tours, (Hop On Hop Off, GhostBus, and Airlink airport bus) not to mention others. We met a day trip bus tour about a block from the DoDublin station, as well, so there are many MANY places you can visit within about a 5 minute walk from the apartment. Also, there is an Aldi on the 1st floor of the complex and was so handy for us. There is also a Tesco across the street. On the other side of the block are a lot of shopping options (clothing, gifts, etc). There are so many wonderful things about this apartment and its location. I'd highly suggest staying here for your time in Dublin. We couldn't have had a better stay.
