Emma and John's house is a wonderful place to stay in Dublin. We traveled around Ireland and Glasgow for 11 days, and theirs was the most comfortable place we stayed by far. The room is large and the bed and bedding are very comfy, and the skylit bathroom is also large and lovely. Their house, which they are remodeling themselves, is lovingly and beautifully designed, and they and their small children are simply delightful. Emma sat our jetlagged bodies down and made us coffee the second we arrived, and provided fruit and coffee and tea up in our room as well. They were also very helpful with directions and suggestions, and when they told us to call if we got lost or needed help, we totally believed them and would have done so if we needed to. They are a fair walk into the city center, but only about 15 minutes--we never took the bus, and we left our rental car parked in their slot out back. We recommend Cowtown for breakfast or lunch, which is only about 5 minutes from them--best brown bread I had during our entire stay in Ireland! In short, I recommend their room with no hesitations whatsoever. When we get back to Dublin, we will certainly look them up!
