Micheál and his wife were wonderful hosts. The check in process was supremely easy and the flat was absolutely gorgeous. It's right in the heart of Temple Bar, so very very central to all the action, but manages to be fairly quiet even in that notoriously noisy part of the city. There was some maintenance work going on in the building which made things a little more noisy than usual, but I'm still rating it as high as I can because it was such a perfect place to explore Dublin from. I can't recommend it enough.
