My husband & I just spent 5 days in Dublin in Jacinta & Pat's house. The location was wonderful. It is relaxed & green and minutes away from a wonderful sea front by foot. It literally only takes 10 to 15 minutes to reach Dublin's city center by bus and it was a relief to return to the peace & beauty of Clontarf after the chaos in downtown Dublin. The buses run almost until midnight & it's a quick taxi ride too.
Although frequent Airbnb users it was our first time actually staying with a family. It was a very private experience as our room was en suite so there was no sharing of a bathroom. We liked that. They were wonderful hosts who opened their comfortable house to us and were always helpful & relaxed to be with. We really enjoyed their company and their other guests and would definitely stay there again. It was a lovely experience.
