Though we didn't meet our hosts, they communicated very clear directions on how to check in, so that went very smoothly. The location was right along the river, easily walkable to a multitude of shops and bars where we had a most enjoyable evening experience! The apartment amenities were fabulous; I only wish that we had been able to stay more than one night to take advantage of the washer/dryer and fully equipped kitchen. The hosts thoughtfully added some interesting reading material, candles and maps. It was quite bright with huge windows, although if you wanted privacy, the blinds could be easily closed. There were two bedrooms - 1 with a queen size bed, and the other with four twins. We were all so tired by the time we fell into bed that we slept great, despite the springy old mattresses. The layout was unusually nice with a very large eating and sitting room area, and so luxurious to have 2 bathrooms, one with a tub. We couldn't have afforded staying here more than one night, but it was nice for our last night in Ireland!
