10/10 Excellent
"Stayed our last night in Dublin. It was a little difficult to figure out parking and the front desk wasn’t really helpful when I asked except for giving me the discount code. Property had some homeless around it and the woman in the tent was more helpful than the front desk. (Front desk said I dunno, I’ve never been there when I asked for direction bc we were flustered trying to find it.) Inside vibe was super cute tho. Pizza was delicious. We stayed in a studio and the shower was in the room, but it did have a curtain if you need. Would stay again tho."
