My stay with Bob was absolutely amazing. The place was within walking distance of everything I wanted to see in Dublin - I never even had to take a train or bus anywhere except to leave Dublin.
Some days before I had to check-in, Bob gave me detailed instructions and options on how to get to the house, including costs and the Geolocation.
When I got there, he gave me a tour of the house and we sat for some tea and snacks. He gave me a map of the city and pointed out places I might be interested in. In fact, many of my favorite places in Dublin were initially suggestions given to me by him.
Bob is such a great host. He will make sure you are comfortable in every way, and you will have many really interesting, intelligent and funny discussions with him, if you so wish.
Two warnings:
1) Make sure your device plugs match those in Ireland. If not, you might need to get an extension. (Luckily, there was one in the room when I got there.)
2) You will spend at least 90% of your time there trying to gain Elsie's love. Do not despair. She will give it when you least expect it, and it will all be worth it!
