Melanie was terrific. I have only used airbnb once before so was a bit dubious. Her place was ideally located: both quiet and easily accessible to the downtown of Dublin. Melanie was gracious and responsive, easy about an early arrival, and friendly while giving me plenty of space. I had the run of the house. She made me feel at home and had plenty of good local information. It was perfect for me. Highly recommended. I would go back in a heartbeat if I were in Ireland again!
