Could not open the windows upstairs because of a beehive and it was too noisy and stuffy inside. Not good for our first Dublin stay.

13.2/10 Exceptional! (11 reviews)

Fabulous location—an easy 1 block walk to Grafton Street and in the center of copious shopping, food, and attractions! Loved having an apartment with a full kitchen and laundry. BUT, there was zero communication from property management prior to check in and the property is not marked and has no signage. Impossible to find without calling management, which is off-site with a hard-to-find phone number. We stayed in unit #6. The floors are awful (delaminating and damaged). The bathroom was grungy with a broken shower door that caused water to go everywhere and no shelf space to set travel bags. And the walls in the unit were stained and needed painting. Our friends stayed in unit #3 which was cleaner and nicer (but their couch was gross). I might stay here again because of the location, but would request unit 3 and be proactive in communicating with management ahead of time.

The breaker kept popping so the bathroom light would not stay on when in need. Parking was not included nor discussed so it was unknown by us that we had to purchase a parking package u til the day we arrived. Then there were no parking spots available. We spent over $200 in parking to stay there.
