Why I recommend this place to visitors — 2 years ago
Loved this city! It was my favorite part of my trip to Ireland. The people are real characters. They don’t act all pissy that you’re a tourist. They just treat you like anybody else. They’re happy to tell you stories about their lives and their city. Really laid back, but not aloof.
If you get a chance, stop into a pub with a stage for bands to play. Just sit, chill, drink and enjoy the music. It’s a nice alternative to running around from museum to museum and site to site. Also, for breakfast, I recommend a place called Kafka’s. It’s this cozy little diner decorated in bright orange. The service was good, and it’s near a number of hostels.
