Pauline is a gem. She was very helpful with tips on transport to and from the airport and when my flight was delayed she was very kind and was able to work it out for me. She offered to serve breakfast every morning and taught me how to make Irish pancakes and served breakfast with raspberries from her backyard. The house is incredible and she takes very good care of it. The rooms are charming. I stayed in the single room, it was perfect, there were clean towels ready, a hanger for clothes, a bottle of water, and a sheet of tips and instructions for the house and Dublin. Everything in the house was provided, Pauline was more than happy to help with anything I needed. I was only in town for 3 nights, but I managed to experience a lot in a short amount of time. The house is close enough to the city center that you can walk in about a 45 minute to and hour time depending on what you want to see and where you are going. The walk is lovely but there are also at least two buses, 40 and 79, that will get you quickly downtown. You can grab a bus easily and they are quick and efficient. I didn't spend much time in Inchicore but it's a pretty historical area, and if you get a chance, check out the Kilmainham Gaol tour. It's just down the street from the house. There's not a ton of late night food available in the neighborhood but if you plan ahead, you'll be fine. Overall, Dublin is a overly town, easy to spend time in, and this home with Pauline was perfect. I will definitely be returning to stay with Pauline in the future!
