It was too costly for what we received.

The bed was comfortable.

Everything was absolutely perfect, we have no complaints at all!
Pros:

The hospitality of the hosts was absolutely the highlight of our stay! They provided clear, detailed instructions for self-check-in due to our late flight. However, they went above and beyond by waiting up for us until 1 AM just to welcome us in person and show us around.The location is excellent: it is very close to the 24/7 bus 41 stop from the airport. The walk to the property takes only about 10 minutes and feels completely safe and comfortable, even after 1 AM. There is also another stop nearby, making it super easy to reach Dublin city center.The room was incredibly cozy, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the bathroom was spotlessly clean. The breakfast was a bit simple but definitely sufficient and a great start to the day. Thank you so much for making us feel at home!

Pros:

Les propriétaires sont charmants et donnent de bons conseils. Pour une nuit, c'était parfait ! Nous avons pu prendre nos repas (froids) dans la salle de restauration.

Cons:

Nous avons eu peur, car quand nous sommes arrivés, il ny avait personne et la boite a clé était hors detat. Il n'etait pas possible de contacter les propriétaires, ni par texto, ni.par mail ou téléphone. Un problème lié à l'application ? mais les propriétaires sont arrives rapidement.

Good alternative to the City Centre
Pros:

Very friendly and helpful hosts. Supermarket and pub just across the street. Nice residential area for a little stroll. Just 15min bus trip from the airport.

Pros:

La amabilidad de Gordon y su esposa, nos dejo entrar en la habitación desde temprano y nos dio muchas recomendaciones. La ubicación es buena, aunque no esta en el centro hay buena frecuencia de buses a cualquier hora, recomiendo la Leap visitor card de 3 dias que sirve para bus, tranvia y tren, solo la venden en el aeropuerto u oficina de bus en el centro. En general la estancia esta muy bien y acorde a la descripción.

Lage ok
Pros:

Lage ok, zwischen Flughafen und Innenstadt (je 20min mit dem Bus)
mit Bus 41 war alles gut erreichbar
Gastgeber waren bemüht
für 1-2 Nächte ok

Cons:

Vorne weg sollte man wissen: die Gastgeber wohnen mit im Haus
es roch im ganzen Haus nach Zigarettenrauch
es war überall staubig & nicht geputzt
man teilte sich das Bad mit allen im Haus
Frühstück gab es in der gemeinsamen Küche, das haben wir nicht in Anspruch genommen
Die hygienischen Standards entsprachen allgemein nicht den Erwartungen, es hätte in allen Bereichen deutlich gründlicher geputzt werden müssen
dadurch waren wir wenig in der Unterkunft, eigentlich nur für die Übernachtung

Pros:

We had a great stay! The hosts were very friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. They kindly allowed us to leave our luggage after checkout, which gave us the opportunity to explore the city before heading back home. This was a very thoughtful gesture and much appreciated. Highly recommended!

Cousy small room for sleeping
Pros:

Basic breakfast, some toast and crisps. No real coffee machine sadly, only instant coffee. Otherwise nice folks, very tiny room, but all was as expected and sleeping was good.

Cons:

Little gold in the morning the whole house and the room. Did not bother me too much though, needed to leave early anyway. For price and location very nice stay.
