Exceptional home based in city centre location

We thought the place was wonderful even if we only gave it 3 stars, more on that later. Location is centeral to Dublin but does require a good amount of walking. However Dublin is an easy city to walk. Clost to Christ's Church. Neighborhod at night can feel a bit unsafe but to be honest we NEVER had any issues so that may be unfair. Not a lot of eating or shoping near by but again, walking in Dublin is so easy. Do not bring a car as parking would be a nightmare anyway.

As for the house, it really is nice and beautiful, but only thing keeping it from a a 4 star (location keeping it from 5) is the fact that it just needed better up keep. The house need a good dusting and overall cleaning could have been much better. Items like chairs broken and such just needed attention. However none of this took away from the stay. We did enjoy it .

My father and I just stayed at the apartment for a 5 day trip and I would highly recommend this space for its comfort, cleanliness and awesome location. We were met at the bus stop by the apartment caretaker who was incredibly friendly and gave us tips about what to see and helped orient us with the map (also left fresh baked Irish soda bread, jam, milk etc.). It is very conveniently located to all major sites of Dublin especially for those who don't mind walking (though there were plenty of bus lines within a couple of blocks). Most importantly, it was quiet - I live in Manhattan so appreciated the lack of street and neighbor noises. The only thing that would make this a perfect, 5 star apartment is if there was wifi Internet access. I don't necessarily need to check my email everyday on vacation, but I do like to look up pubs and restaurants last minute because I don't always have time to do the research up front. Speaking of pubs, there is a great one across the street from the brazen head on bridge street called o'shea's merchant that had a great pub food menu, served relatively late, was a local crowd and had live seemingly impromptu music on a Tuesday night. If any family or friends plan a trip to Dublin, I will point them to Trisha and this apartment. Thanks for the great stay!

We had 2 days in Dublin for the Chili Peppers concert and could not have picked a better location - both Patricia & Sean are very quick to help with any details - and make the whole process very easy.

The condo is very central - a 5 minute walk to temple bar - 20 minutes to O'Connell St - it is very clean & well maintained - good shower & plenty of room to lounge around.- I will try to stay here anytime I travel to Dublin.

Thanks for the welcoming gift Sean - a very nice touch.

See you soon
