Wonderful flat

We loved our stay at this flat in Dublin. It was a quiet area, close to trains and short uber ride to the sites. Near a grocery store and a wonderful pub we frequented a few times for our dinner. Our family had lots of space. The laundry was also very appreciated!

Fabulous stay!

We had a great time at Mike’s place. Check in was easy and everything was straightforward. The space was perfect for my husband and mother in law, clean, quiet, and safe. Beds were very comfortable and the main level was a great place to hangout. Location was perfect for exploring Dublin - walking distance to everything! If I find myself in Dublin again, I would stay here. Thanks Mike!

Wonderful stay in Dublin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hardwicke apartment. While we were North of the Liffey, location was close to all amenities and was a nice quiet neighborhood. The apartment was very clean and was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. Communication with the Property Manager was excellent. Instructions were very thorough and detailed. it was definitely a home away from home and we would absolutely stay here again.

This place is great

I basically never write online reviews, but I’m making an exception here because this place is really great. The neighbourhood is very quiet, but not so far out that you can’t walk to the centre of the city. And anyway, the neighbourhood itself is very nice. The house itself is very nice. The two rooms are just the right size. John is super helpful. All really very nice.

This property was great for two couples. We were 15 minutes away from all our tour pick ups. You could walk out the back gate and be a fantastic pub or restaurants within minutes. Highly recommend this house. The beds are very comfortable, lovely sitting room and well equipped kitchen.
