Gerard was exceptionally welcoming. Although we didn't meet him face to face, we were greeted by his aunt Patty and told that we had the whole apartment to ourselves! The listing is very accurate - lovely clean rooms, towels provided and a generous breakfast. We were left lots of brochures and leaflets to give us ideas as to what to see and do in Dublin and Gerard sent a text with ideas of restaurants and bars. I would highly recommend Gerard's apartment and would like to go back soon!
