Great location, but not exactly what I expected

We spent 4 nights at the apartment, and I'd like to say first off that the location really can't be beat. That in and of itself made the apartment worth the price we paid. It's about 30 feet from a shopping mall, and has two grocery stores within walking distance. It's also very close to the AirLink stop, so getting to and from the airport was very simple.
Upon arrival to the apartment, the first thing I noticed was that it was not the aprtment pictured in the ad I responded to, and not the apartment pictured in the review link sent to me. In all honesty, I found the apartment to be a little shabby. The bed that I slept in had a pretty large stain on the underside of it. It looked to be coffee, but I don't know for sure. The sheets also seemed to be a little on the older side, and they were a bit pilled.
The living room was small and tidy, as was the kitchen. The dining area had a nice big table with a bench seat, which also was stained.
Overall, we had a fabulous time in Dublin and though the apartment was not exactly what I expected it to be, it served it purpose. The staff at the Kingfisher were all very helpful, and addressed and questions I had immediately and in a friendly manner. I do think I would use this service again, but would make sure that I was getting what was advertised.
