Karin was a great host! I really enjoyed the cute studio apartment and it was walking distance to everything. She does a great job leaving you information about the area and provides basic breakfast for you to cook. One issue I had was the bed. Too firm for me and I did not sleep the best. Also the location is in the thick of the city, beside China Town. I am not a city girl so the noise was very loud and wasnt the nicest part of Dublin. Overal a great deal for the money and Karin is a great host!
