John and Caroline's home is cozy, clean and beautiful. We were a bit worried about staying outside Dublin 8, but their house is a short walk from busses (with wifi!) that run every 10 minutes or so and take you straight to the city center. John got to know us and our interests and shared great tips based on what my sister and I enjoy doing. Time spent with our hosts made our experience in Ireland was made more special and authentic. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Their dog, J.D. is a sweetheart, too!
