Valerie is too sweet! She's a pleasant host, exceedingly helpful. Her place feels like a pleasant home. The location is great! It's a quiet seaside town very close to the DART which will take you directly into downtown Dublin.
She does have a few pets (two dogs, a cat), but I found them lovely and asked to spend a little time petting them. She keeps the areas where guests will be quite free of pet hair but if you have allergies it might not be the perfect fit.
