I really loved staying in Jenny and Patrick's place- it's in a perfect area if you are visiting for the first time. It is nestled between the Guinness storehouse and distillery area and the Temple bar area so it's a great spot for ticking off so many amazing "must-see" spots. Phoenix Park is also a short walk away.
The place itself is perfect for a family or for two couples. Jenny and Patrick have put a lot of effort into making the place feel like a "home away from home" with kitchen essentials and great books. The place gets a wonderful amount of sun throughout the day and the balcony area is a rare find in Dublin. I loved their thoughtfulness and unique touches blending together their lives in Ireland and Hong Kong.
