The apartment is beautiful! It was just like the pictures. Everything was very clean and tidy and the beds and living room furniture were very comfy. The kitchen and dining room have all you need to feel like you're at home. It's a really cool old building, and the street it's on has lots of charm and is rich in history. The intersecting street (Parnell Street) can be a bit rough, but we didn't hang out in the bars there so it wasn't an issue. It was a great location though, only a 15 minute walk to the Temple Bar area and very close to lots of trendy shops and restaurants on O'Connell Street -- plus you get The Spire as a landmark when you're walking home. Sonja and Michael were easy to reach and a pleasure to rent from. I would rent the apartment again!
