Michael greeted us and showed us into our apartment. We had a bit of a chat and he recommended some places to go, eat etc. We loved the apartment with the birds eye view of the dog track. It was great - proper atmosphere!
The location is good too, there are some great places to eat a short walk away and it's about a 20 - 30 min walk to the heart of the city (depending on which part of the city you're going to). Taxis are easy to find though and it was 7 euros from Grafton Street back to the apartment.
I'd definitely return :)
