Staying with Caroline and John is one of the best Airbnb experiences I've had in awhile. John is congenial and always have something interesting to share. Caroline is a sweet lady and we wish that we could have spent more time with her. Both of them make sure to make their guests feel welcomed and I can't ask for a more wonderful homely experience.

The apartment is extremely well-kept and beautiful. The couple keeps a cat and a dog and both pets are very well-behaved. We had fun playing fetch with the dog. It took us more than an hour to reach the apartment from the airport because we opted for the cheaper option to the city centre (2.60 euro for a one-way journey instead of the Airlink 747 that costs 6 euro) and got lost finding the bus stop for bus 15 to the apartment. However, it's nothing that cannot be avoided with some map checking on the buses that are always equipped with Wi-Fi. On average, it took us 20-30 minutes to reach the city centre. Breakfast was also provided every morning.

I highly recommend this airbnb if you want to find out more about Dublin from a local's perspective.
