Johns place was brilliant, and John was even better, so helpful, in contact the week before, as soon as we landed, on our way to his apartment and during our stay. Answered all our questions, gave us all the directions we needed, made sure we got off at the right bus stop. He even left milk and biscuits in the fridge, which was very appreciated.
It's a short bus ride to and from the city, or a 50 ish minute walk. Shops near by so you don't have to eat out at every meal, the kitchen was great to cook and prepare meals, as Dublin is an expensive city.
Cannot fault Johns place and would definitely recommend.
