Laurence and Carmen are extremely welcoming hosts and you can see this not only in their interaction with you prior to your stay, but also how far they go to ensure you're comfortable and enjoy your stay with them. We arrived the day of Hurricane Ophelia and they went completely out of their way to help us! They have a very creative space and live in a neighborhood that reflects this as well right outside of city center. I would definitely recommend staying with them if you're looking to meet nice local people and don't mind a bit of a walk and want to see other parts of Dublin other than the city center. Thanks again for a great stay!
