Dardo is truly the ideal Host. He is very well-traveled and knowledgable of the area, which allows him to anticipate the needs of his guests and provide everything that is necessary for a comfortable stay. I appreciated how he kept the lines of communication open prior to my arrival and was extremely helpful in providing useful information about the area and instructions on the best way to get to his apartment from the airport. Just a short bus ride away from the airport to his place, a one-way ticket will cost you only about 7 Euros. Dardo was kind enough to meet me near the bus stop to greet me and let me into the apartment, which was a short walk (less than 5 minutes) away. The studio apartment is very charming, exactly as you see it in the photos, with perfect views of the Ha'penny Bridge right outside the window and fully equipped with everything you could possible need during your stay. He pays careful attention to every detail to ensure you feel welcomed and relaxed throughout your visit. The apartment really is in the best location for exploring all that Dublin has to offer, and can be accessed easily on foot or by bus. There is also a nice variety of restaurants, traditional pubs, and shops conveniently located nearby throughout the neighborhood, making this the ideal spot for accommodations. You really couldn't ask for a better location or Host during your trip to Dublin!
