Karin’s place was absolutely gorgeous! Check in was very easy and Karin even brought us some milk, eggs, and homemade banana bread on our first night there- a thoughtful touch. Loved the location too as it was within 10-25 minute walking distance to pretty much any area of Dublin we wanted to go to, without being too close to the overcrowded touristy parts. Only downside to our stay was the shower water pressure, and that we could not get the water to get very hot. It would eventually get warm-ish after running the water for about 20 minutes, but never quite got hot. We never mentioned it to Karin as I’m fairly certain it’s common in Ireland, and wasn’t really a huge issue for us as we were only there for a couple of nights. Other than that, the apartment really has everything you need- cookware, TV, loads of books and DVD’s, coffee, tea, and everything in between. Karin was so kind and also gave us lots of suggestions of things to do in Dublin, she really went the extra mile to ensure we had a great trip!
