Although we didn't meet Maria her house mate Aoife was there and she was really nice and welcoming. They prepared everything for tee and coffee in our room and a bottle of water too. If we had any kind of questions we could always ask Aoife. The location is perfect for a stay in Dublin - quiet but still central - e.g. only 15 minutes to walk to the City Hall.
We really enjoyed staying there and can only recommend them as hosts!
