Overall my stay was fine. John's wife welcomed us and was very kind. She bought us bread and milk and was very kind to show us all the best spots in Dublin on a map that she annotated. The apartment is a bit of a walk from the main tourist attractions but it's a great little neighbor with a park nearby. Good restaurant options a 5 minute walk away and very close to the bus stop. On the downside, the place is moldy, especially the bathroom. I felt nervous to walk bare foot in the bathroom. It's very bare bones and small because it's not really a real apartment but rather an old closet or something transformed into an Airbnb. The only source of heat (which is essential in the winter when I visited) was an electric heater, which was not the best. During my stay the WiFi ran out, since it was a hotspot rather than a box. Unfortunately, it was impossible for John to give me a new one since the hotspot ran out at night on our second/last day. This place is a decent option for the budget traveler since it's the cheapest Airbnb available and cheaper than some hostels.
