The apartment on offer genuinely seemed to good to be true due to the prices in the central area of Dublin along with its general location being too good to be true. However, it was all very true and better!
After booking, communication with Gonzague was perfect and immediate. Then check-in was as simple as can be. The apartment was showed to us with everything that needed to be explained, we genuinely could not ask for more.
The apartment was sparkling clean with all amenities and more provided. The photos really do not do the apartment justice. The location was right in the dead centre. I did not pay for a single taxi except to and from the airport. Everything was in walking distance and the apartment was right next to the main city centre. I don't know if you could be any closer to the city with such a beautiful apartment. The apartment was very spacious, huge living room, great balcony, big bedroom with a comfy bed, great wardrobe space, great bathroom and kitchen. The apartment is done to a new and high standard. It is not like any other apartment I stayed in Dublin. The price really is a steal. An absolute steal.
Then we had Gonzague messaging us if we needed anything and to check up on us which was an amazing touch. You can tell when a host really wants to ensure you are having a good time. And I can safely say the apartment truly felt like home. Also my friend hurt herself during this trip and Gonzague has continued to check on her health which he does not have to do. It says a lot about this host, he is the best host I have come across on AirBnb and he has unfortunately set a very high standard of expectations for me from AirBnb hosts now!
I had the absolute best trip and I can safely say a major part was due to this apartment. Location, how clean it was, how it was done up, how new and well-kept it is. It truly was a steal for us and next time I am in Dublin the first host I am checking is Gonzague.
To all those on AirBnb, do not hesitate with this host. I have stupidly high standards that I should let go but Gonzague went past that. Thank you ever so much and I hope I can stay in your apartment again!
