We had a lovely stay at Joe's apartment. It was just as described, cosy, warm apartment with a lovely, homely feel. It's a little out of the way, about a 35 minute walk into the centre of Dublin, I believe there is good public transport but we chose to walk everywhere.
Communication was great with Joe and he was very flexible with check out times as there were no other guests after us which was brilliant. Overall a great stay, thanks Joe!
