Richard is a very nice person and answered all my calls and text. However, I feel it necessary to be as accurate with my review as possible. Here are some of the good things. The ride from the airport is short and inexpensive. Checking in was a breeze because of the lockbox on the premises. There is a small community around the apartment with a couple convenience stores and pubs, but unfortunately not much more than that.
Some of the things that weren’t so good. The apartment is very tiny and doesn’t have a view of anything. Any more than 3 adults would be uncomfortable. Because the weather was warm the only way to cool the apartment was to open the windows. But you could not leave them open when you were not there because it’s on the ground level. When the windows were open the bugs and flies were overwhelming due the yard area behind the apartment being unkept and overgrown. There is a bed in the bedroom but the second bed is the red vinyl type futon you see pictured in the living room. Not comfortable at all. Then there is with the shower. Although it worked fine and had hot water, it is very small. I am 5’10 200lbs and struggled fitting inside. If you are any bigger than that you will have a problem showering. I compare it to a recreational vehicle (RV) size shower. The final detail is the distance to City Centre. It is much farther than expected. At least to get to the tourist areas like the Guinness Factory or the Temple Bar. It’s at least a 45min to 1hr walk, and 15-20 mins by bus or cab, and It’s not easy to find or hail a cab from where the apartment is located. I guess it all depends what you are looking for, but we would not go back.
