This place is a hidden gem. I'd expected something quite far out of the way from central Dublin, but this apartment was a short walk to the Kilmainham Gaol. We were able to talk advantage of the hop-on/hop-off tourist buses, and never felt isolated. The nearby grocery stores were also well-stocked. For convenience, safety, quiet and exceptional hospitality from the host, Michael--I can't imagine a better option for a family visiting Dublin.
