Karin's place was a great home base for us in Dublin. We were able to check in early thankfully, we landed at 5:00 am and were able to get into the apartment early to get some rest. The apartment is beautiful and unique. The location was perfect to get downtown, we never used taxis and were able to walk everywhere. It is in a safe area and we really enjoyed the neighborhood. We got our laundry done while staying with Karin and this was very helpful as we headed to our next city on our trip.
