We were first time airbnb'ers and not sure what to expect. What a great experience it was! Michael met us at the bus stop and walked us to his home. His apartment was centrally-located, clean, and PERFECT for two travelers. From the first inquiry all the way through departure, Michael was responsive and helpful. 5 stars is not enough. What a pleasant experience! Could not have been better. We WILL return to Dublin and absolutely WILL stay with Michael again! We can only hope that the rest of our hosts are as accommodating, gentlemanly, helpful, and responsive as Michael.
