This home was great for our first trip to Dublin! It had all of the spaces we needed, felt safe, and was close enough to walk to everything we wanted to see. The beds were very comfortable, water was hot and the washer/dryer was a huge help to us! I gave an overall rating of 4 because it is right next to the train tracks, so is a little loud until around 11pm. City noise will likely be a factor any place you stay, and this was not obnoxiously loud, so would not keep us from staying here again. A European home will be different than a US home, this place was not "fancy" but was clean and very nice. It's hard to know whether VRBO's will have toiletries, this one has hand soap, but not bath soap, shampoo/conditioner.Pre-arrival communication from the owner was exceedingly helpful! We were a bit nervous to tackle a new, international city, but David and this place made it a breeze. I marked check-in as a 4 because of the uncertainty (prior to arriving) of how well the check-in process would work. The reality was that it worked really well, no problems at all!
