Mary, who owns the two apartments, was a very sweet Irish hostess. She was there with keys and let me check in early because the previous guests had already left. The larger (4 person) apartment is not the one with the wooden hatch in the photo, but I found it equally as charming. The smaller 2 person unit across the hall has the kitchen shown in the photo, but the apartments were very similar. It was a quick walk into the Latin Quarter, Claddagh Quay, and all the rest. Would stay again!
