The apartment had a very homey feeling. She told us to help ourselves to the food in the fridge and if we needed to do laundry help ourselves to the soap. There was also a basket of items in the bathroom of items we may have forgotten bring to take if needed like Q-tips, toothpaste, ect. The description of the apartment was spot on. There was a fabulous view. The neighborhood was great as well. We were so thankful Joyce told us about the little grocery store just around the corner within walking distance. I would recommend this apartment to anyone looking to visit Ireland.
