We had email contact with John before we arrived. All advance information we got from him was accurate and really useful.
John was waiting for us when we arrived, showed us around, and gave us directions for the places in the neighborhood that we needed for our stay. Nice person, with a sense of humor; I'd like to call him my friend and would definitely reach out to him for my next trip to Ireland (a matter of when, not if...).

The apartment looks much better in person than the pictures - it is large, clean full of light and very comfortable. Everything works perfectly - it was a pleasure to spend our vacation time there.

The connections to town and train stations by public transportation are close by and handy, with frequent buses and trams.

We felt that even the weather was arranged quite nicely - for Ireland anyway :-)
