This location can't be beat and Colman was an attentive host who responded quickly to our needs & questions. There are tons of local places to eat & enjoy, all within walking distance or a short bus ride. Even though the apartment is on a very busy street, right on the river, it's so far back in the building that it was quite quiet (except for those seagulls, as a previous review mentioned :). Guests should know that the layout is a bit funky, with the bedrooms and bathroom all on different levels, connected by a spiral staircase. Also, the washer/dryer is actually a combined unit, so doing laundry took quite a bit of time (as the dryer was not extremely powerful). However, all and all, we had a great trip & enjoyed Dublin at a great price point for our family of five.
