Both Gavin and his wife Marta were friendly and warm. When I got there they provided instructions on the house and local area. They explained that I could use other parts of the house but after long travels I simply wanted to rest. They allowed me the space to do so without interruption and I truly appreciate that. The location was great because it was close to a very large mall as well as the Dublin airport. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet. Surrounded by beautiful trees and big fields of grass. The room was cozy and simple. It was slightly cold but as soon as I got under the comforter it was awesome. This is one of the most comfortable beds I've EVER slept in. The comforter is thick and feels like a cloud. I never wanted to get out of bed! I was on a working holiday and the Wifi worked really well. In the bathroom the shower pressure and hot water was consistent. The only negative was the bathroom was not entirely clean. The sink and toilet hadn't been wiped down and the trash was full. There was another guest there at the same time though and I think he had been there awhile before I got there. So maybe the bathroom wasn't cleaned before my check-in. It wasn't terrible, just a little lived in. Otherwise, I had a pleasant stay. Thanks again Gavin and Marta for sharing your home with me!
