Though we never met in person, Daniele was a very responsive host. She always messaged me back and her info was mostly accurate. The check in process was a little complicated as you have to go to a casino business down a slightly sketchy street to pick up the keys and fob. It’s all laid out on the Airbnb website, but easy to misunderstand. The gate and the front door are tricky to negotiate & there’s no mechanism to buzz someone in past the gate. I gladly paid an extra fee to have a second person stay with me (on the lovely fold out couch) but there was no second set of keys available to us so we had to be joined together the whole trip.
As for the place, it’s sort of perfect. It’s in a convenient location; about a 10-15 minute walk from temple bar area. The bedroom is lovely and the bathroom is modern and almost everything worked (the glass shower doors can slide off the track easily, and the light over the mirror didn’t work). The kitchen was clean & fully stocked with pots and plates, appliances, etc & we made coffee every morning. There was cereal and crisps left for us, even fresh milk in the fridge (!) tho I suspect it was left from the guests before. Loved the terrace. It was a great value, well situated and I’d stay there again if I come back to Dublin!
