We loved Sonja's place. It was like staying with a friend and having the freedom of the house. It was the very best of what Airbnb is all about.
We also loved Royal Canal Park, the neigbourhood. It was 20minues by bus to the centre of Dublin. Its a double decker so you can enjoy the view. The bus is virtually at the doorstep, but we also enjoyed taking the train, a 10minute walk to Ashtown station along the beautiful canal. Thankyou Sonja and Michael!
