Michael's place was lovely and the location worked out really well for us - it is walkable to so many of the sites. It's also just a short walk to public transportation. Michael was great - he met us at his place and gave us a lot of really helpful information on things to see and do. In fact, at his suggestion, we took a great Paddywagon tour of the Ring of Kerry, as well as a short train ride down to the charming and colorful seaside village of Cobh. And he recommended the perfect little pub right around the corner (the Sin E) where we enjoyed a pint (or two) and wonderful traditional Irish music. The beds in Michael's place are really comfortable. And while there is some street noise in the front room because, hey, it's in the middle of a city, the bedrooms are in the back and they are quiet. We would definitely stay here again!
