I stated with Cynthia family and I am overall impressed and satisfied. Catch shuttle bus after late arrival to Dublin airport (midnight) which dropped me right at the door. Nice cozy room with very clean and comfortable duvet and large towels. All apartment is spotless clean including common areas like kitchen and living room. Place is secure with security on place during nights. Bathroom is available for private use as there is another one in the apartment. There are two buses going to city centre every 10-15 minutes till late. Taxi from city-centre cost 10 eur only. You will see real Dublin there, outside of crowded and tourists spoiled areas. Fair and tasty breakfast, tea/coffee available at any time. Cyntia and her wife are very helpful and can advice you not only about Ireland but worldwide as they have travelled a lot in a past few years. We had a great conversations about various place we have both visited. High-speed internet allowed to upload my movies online within minutes. I will definitely come back to Cynthia next time I will be in Dublin.
