Conor was friendly and hospitable, giving me good advice on what to see in Dublin. He was good natured about hitches in my arrival times and helping me deal with luggage lost by the airline. I felt welcome and free to do and be as I pleased in Conor's companionable space, and the comfortable bed was bliss after a very long flight. The bus trip in and out of the city centre is easy. I highly recommend staying with Conor, as long as you can manage a short but quite steep staircase.
