Eddie's place is stunning. Beautiful stained glass windows have been preserved in this victorian red brick house, nestled on a street rich in history. Steps from the eastern gate to Phoenix park, a short walk to Dublin Zoo, easily accessed by a variety of bus routes that can take you all over the city. Heuston Station, a hub for both Irish Rail, the LUAS, and many city busses, as well as intercity and airport coaches, is about a 7-minute walk away. The neighbourhood is beautiful, with a small convenience grocery store about 30 metres from the front door with any conceivable item you may need available for purchase at a very modest price, from sunscreen to toothpaste, groceries, and snacks. The water from the taps is good quality, the shower boasts an electric water heater. The suite offers a robustly equipped kitchenette and very easily sleeps four. Even in impressive Irish heat (thick and almost inescapable), the suite stays cool.
I've travelled a fair bit and have never felt so welcome and comfortable. You can't get a better stay, especially for the host's price, access to the city, and Eddie's hospitality. We were heartbroken at having to leave, and hope to return again soon. 11/10.
