We booked this AirBnb based solely on reviews and we were not disappointed! Carmel and Diarmuid's place was absolutely lovely.
The pictures posted online are exactly the same as the apartment you walk into; The location is in a safe, clean, quiet area along the canal which makes you feel like you are outside of the the city even though it is only a short walk away;
The response rate to any questions we had throughout booking was close to, if not, immediate;
There is everything you will need for making your meals, finding your way around the city, extra blankets etc.;
The best of all are the nice little touches around the apartment - including a warm welcome of beer, wine and snacks on arrival.
The only minor challenge we had was with parking. There are limited options other than 3 hour curbside parking in the near area. If possible, it would be ideal to simply visit without a vehicle as you do not need one in the city!
We will definitely stay again at Carmel & Diarmuid's AirBnb when in Dublin again and have already recommended it to several people!
