Ciaran's place was wonderful. We stayed there for almost 2 weeks and it felt like home. It was newly renovated when we arrived so some things (towel hangers, curtains etc) were missing but Ciaran took care of that right away. He was also very prompt is responding to queries. The apartment was very clean. There's a laundry machine, kicthen utensils and pans, everything to make you feel at home.
The location is great. It is just across the street from St. Patrick's cathedral and a very short walk to Dame street and Temple Bar area. I would definitely recommend this apartment!
