Dave was a great host! He met me promptly at the apartment after I gave him a heads up ETA of our arrival. He gave us a quick tour of the apartment and gave us some local tips on nearby restaurants and pubs. We were pleasantly greeted with a bottle of wine, box of Irish butter biscuits, and other treats. WOW! We were all impressed.

Dave also had an array of chargers and converters for our stay, which was really helpful because my friends forgot to bring a converter. He gave us two sets of keys which was helpful just in case someone wanted to go back to the apartment. The space itself is huge and can fit a lot of people comfortably. All the rooms were a decent size and with only 4 of us traveling, it was more than enough room for us. The apartment had a lot of personality and personal touches. My friends and I were all super impressed with Dave's apt.

In terms of location, it was a really hip and trendy location. There were a lot of young professionals in the area but it was still far away enough from all the touristy areas, so you did not have to deal with the noise and chaos. It was a 20-30 minute walk to Trinity College and city center, which I loved because I enjoy walking on my vacations.

If you are looking for a spacey, hip place to stay while you are in Dublin, I highly recommend Dave's place!
