Gerry and his family are very friendly. I staied here for three months. They are very helpful. Although it is not allowed to cook, they arranged me a microwave and small fridge. I have my own bathroom and there is a table for daily work . They have three dogs. If you like dogs you can play with them otherwise they will keep the dogs away. The bus station is 6mins by walking. You can take 46A to UCD, city center, etc.
