Ia is a very kind, helpful host, the communication was very smooth with her. She gave us some advice as well. Her son, cat and dog are all very friendly. The room is just as she details it in the description, clean, tidy..no surprises there at all. Same with the house rules: if you read them carefully, you know what to expect. The flat is in a friendly neighbourhood, about a 40 minutes bus drive from the centre (although the public transport in Dublin is quite hectic). All in all, great place for great price, would recommend!:)
