We are so glad we chose this apartment! Daragh was a delightful host and very accommodating. We arrived a little early and he showed us around town and pointed out his favorite spots for eating and shopping. The apartment is located in an perfect spot in the city...we walked to everywhere we wanted to go in 10 minutes or less. Cabs cruise by the apartment all the time in case you need to get further out of town. The balcony was great- overlooking St. Patrick's Cathedral and a very nice park which allowed some people watching. The building is safe and clean and the neighbors were friendly. Daragh has stocked the apartment with lots of reading material- novels and maps and tour guides we referred to to plan our outings. It was also nice to know that Daragh was close if we needed him, but he never intruded on us (which I have had happen!). We called him once with some questions and he responded immediately. I highly recommend this apartment for an individual or couple who want to stay in the heart of Dublin at a reasonable price!
