The location is perfect, and the apartment is gorgeous (enjoy the rooftop terrace)! Yes, beware lugging heavy bags up the many stairs (top floor unit), but after the initial lug, the stairs are totally reasonable.
The area is easily walkable or commutable by Luas and bus, and there are loads of shops, restaurants and pubs within an easy walk.
The room is adorable and comfy, though I stayed during an exceptional heatwave which left it quite warm and stuffy (no ac). I’d imagine the temperature would be perfect the other 51 weeks of the year!
The hosts are lovely and welcoming, and their house manual includes tons of local tips. The kitties are kept out of the bedroom (good to know for those with allergies), but are super friendly if you want to play with them.
