    We have now stayed in the Michael Collins apartment 3 times. It's close to our son's family, groceries, and transportation. Parking our rental car in the private lot is easy and safe. Sure hope it's available the next time we visit.

    Grainna provided all the information we would ever need to make this wonderful trip very memorable. The Train was close by, as was the bus stop. The place was quiet, clean and functioned perfectly for our needs. I would definitely recommend staying here.

    Our stay at this VRBO was very disappointing due to several issues that impacted our experience. The unit wasn’t clean, with black mould in the shower, dirty dishes, and rusted cutlery. We also faced multiple maintenance issues: the shower drain didn’t work and backed up, and the dishwasher leaked across the kitchen floor. Noise was a constant issue. The walls were so thin that we could hear conversations from neighbours, hallway noise, and other units. The photos of the unit were outdated; we noticed peeling paint, wall damage, and a hole in the wood floor, which we only saw because a side table wasn’t level. There was also a shortage of hot water—we had to stagger showers, as the hot water ran out midway through the second shower each morning. It’s unclear how this unit is advertised for five people when only two can shower consecutively. The layout was awkward, too. With four people (three in the bedroom and one on the living room pullout), the only bathroom being accessible through the bedroom made it difficult for anyone in the living room to use it at night without waking others. The on-site caretaker was rude, and entered the unit without permission, which felt invasive. Though the host and caretaker addressed some issues, we began looking for alternative accommodations as we were so disappointed. I would not recommend this place (I could say more but I'm at my character limit) and I'm surprised it has so many positive reviews given how terrible it was.

    This apartment is close to our son and his family. We enjoy having his kids spend time with us while we visit from the states.

    It was our first time in Dublin and we knew we did not want to stay in a hotel. We wanted to get the “local” feel. The property was perfect for what we needed. It was clean and the neighborhood was charming! We took taxis to and from the apartment, went to The Black Lion and bought our groceries from the Tesco Express.

    Stayed here prior to our tour. Enjoyed the area. Host was very responsive to a question we had about the back door. We enjoyed the local pub while we are there!

    My daughter and I spent a week touring in and around Dublin. This was close to public transportation both the tram and buses. We did feel cold in the flat most of the time we were there. Nice bathroom. Not much in the way of amenities. Kitchen appliances were sufficient and some groceries in the cupboard.
