I stayed for a whole month at Antonio's place, during a visit to Dublin for professional reasons, and can only say the experience exceeded my expectations. The location is really super-central, with all necessary amenities at a very short walking distance: supermarkets, street markets, bookstores, bus stops and luas stop, museums, and even the airlink to the airport. River Liffey and Temple Bar are just a 10-15 minutes walk. The flat is located in a building with multiple security checks, therefore I felt really safe, as a woman travelling alone. What really surprised was how quiet the flat was, though being located in such a central (and noisy) neighbourhood. Windows face an inner garden/atrium, so no noise from main avenues or streets at all. Antonio is a great host, and I felt always at home, with full access to the kitchen and all other amenities in the house (v.g. washing machine). The room is very comfortable and had a small table where I could work. The bathroom is big and clean. I really recomend staying with Antonio, either if you're travelling as a tourist or for professional reasons.
