I immediately felt comfortable with the host prior to my arrival. I received an email saying she's be in the area I was and that should could meet me. That was the beginning of an exceptional experience. For my first Airbnb experience, this will be one for others to measure against. The room was lovely, clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was walking distance from the train station and bus stop and was very safe and welcoming. My trip was very quick and I was able to get a quick trip into Howth because of her suggestions. It was all wonderful and I enjoyed my stay. I even had a ride to the airport very early in the morning - she was very thoughtful and made me feel like a very special guest. I will absolutely stay again with this host should I return to Dublin!
