Great apartement for two people - clean, nice bed and two separate rooms (one with a kitchen).
The area is not very interesting, but a 10-15 minuets walk takes you to great pubs and restaurants. It takes around 30-40 minuets to get to some of the attractions in the city center, but we love to walk, so it was no problem at all. Busses are available too.
The stairway is not very well-maintained and the appartment lacks some finish and charm, but it works and the price is very fair compared to other places in Dublin.
Check-in/check out is very convenient - there is a keybox outside the house. Elaine is very responsive and helpfull and sent us a detailed message before arriving.
