Very Good

Good location and size. Love the big mirrors. Not very sound proof as next to a church which bells go off constantly and on a noisy street. Decent amenities for a short stay although no toiletries
Requested early check in, got no promise for possibility except indication of ‘priority’ in preparation – official time 4pm, key was there for us and apartment all set at 1pm.
Friendly manner on contact by phone both days before arrival and morning of checking out, clear communications and fair flexibility.
Cozy apartment, smaller than others in photos shown on site, but very well warmed, tidily equipped and ample for our purpose.
Getting the key wasn't difficult even though it was a few blocks away from the actual apartment. The most inconvenient thing was paying to park a half mile away and dragging our luggage through a busy part of Dublin.
The apartment itself was spacious and comfortable and was very secure. The kitchen was stocked with items to cook with but not a spice or coffee in sight to at least help our a little bit. Not too horrible though since there was a great coffee shop nearby. The heat worked amazingly and we needed it because it was a chilly and windy night. You could feel the breeze coming in through the windows a bit so we just turned the heat up a bit more to compensate.
Due to what we were told, "area wide low water pressure", there was no water in the toilet and you could not take a shower. It appeared to be a lovely condo in an old building, but without those basics the place should not have been rented to us. A repairman showed up that we had to wait for and he wrapped some electrical tape around the faucet to seal it. He thought maybe there was a vapor lock. He left and that was the end of it. They were unable to provide us with alternative arrangements so we got on the plane the next day, my apologies to the other passengers.
Excellent location and spacious apartment. Slightly disappointing that the TV didn't work and the shower veered from scalding to freezing.

Found that the apartments that I had thought I was getting in the pictures at booking are defo not what we got .. altho it was okay beds were comfortable and spacious.. location was okay Bit far from we’re u collect keys but directions explain how to get there okay.. the man we collected keys from was quite rude as we cudnt get into building to drop keys back he wasnt best pleased and said omg the code is in ur email in quite a sarcastic and cheeky manner.. even tho he was sitting watching us in camera he cud have got up sooner and opened door as we were trying for about 10 mins to get in. Customer service cud have been better..

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The Pictures look much nicer. Not a family spot. Shower was broken but also very dirty. Walls need a paint job badly. It reaked of smoke and booze so bad I almost vomited. TV did not work. The whole lockbox on another alley was a nightmare to figure out and I ended up wandering around at 2am to drop the keys before our flight and it was closed. That area at 2am is very sketchy. If the shower button wasn’t obviously broken before we checked in I would be less mad. If your going with your buds to party, it’s a great location! Area is beautiful in the early evening around Christmas.
The property was in a fabulous location and was a lovely apartment. It had most things we needed and it’s proximity to the city was great and all things were easy to reach. There were great eating places close by.
When we arrived, we initially had trouble finding the location to pick up the key. Even the taxi driver said that he'd never had this experience before. He couldn't find the location either. It took a while and I ended up having to get out and run up and down a few blocks to find it. It was easier than driving on those roads. Eventually I found it but this again raised a red flag with me. The streets where filled with garbage, broken glass, etc. Clearly there was a party the night before.
It was a bit finding the apartment after getting the key. I ended up (again) just running down a corridor and finding it. The taxi driver was clearly concerned about our safety as well & said so. With all the garbage lying around, I could understand why.
We grabbed our luggage and made our way to the apartment from the taxi. We had to walk around garbage, glass, and someone sleeping in the street near our front door. After entering my daughter said "It smells like a dog" & my wife said "that smells like urine". Once in we discovered that there was no toilet paper in the entire apartment, no roll to put it on. It was very run down and we didn't feel very secure. We quickly discovered a bug on the bed in the "master bedroom". We decided to book elsewhere and I called and emailed the company but they've refused to provide any refund of any kind. I took pictures and video of the bad conditions but they don't care. DON'T BOOK HERE
Didn’t realize this property was going to be so old there wasn’t even an elevator so we had to hike 5 flights with suitcases. Also back up to the loudest alley in the city...my friends on cow lane ended up in a much new and better kept building.
