We enjoyed our stay eventually with Keerati but a few elements made the start of the stay difficult and disappointing. We had requested for the two separate beds to be set up for me and my friend but only one bed was ready when we arrived and we were handed what looked like an old used duvet from the wardrobe and stained pillows to make the second bed. We asked for fresh bedding and to also have the towels cleaned as they smelt dirty/not washed well and although this was responded to promptly, it made the start of our stay disappointing. The room was good, warm and not too much noise from the street which was great.
The location is slightly further than stated on the bio by bus. It took us 45mins on the bus instead of the 20mins stated but the trains to Dublin centre would be about 20mins but we didn't use the train to go to Dublin. We recommend getting a leap card from a local convenience store for travel (5 euros for the card, 5 euros min top up). The bus stop is super close and the train is just up the street from the airbnb location which was perfect.
We recommend taking a trip down to Greystones from Clongriffin and then walking along the coast back up to Bray. The train journey was beautiful and the walk was gorgeous. You can then catch the train back to Clongriffin or head to Howth as well. This is for anyone wanting to venture out of Dublin on their visit as well.
If you just need a place to sleep on your visit to Ireland, we would recommend Keerati's place. Its a little pricey for what you get but it functions well and Keerati is a responsive host and his cat is very cute.
