I just stayed for 5 days in Aïdas house with my mom, her friend and my uncle and aunt. The minute we walked through the door, we all agreed that the house was something special. The architechture is really nice and the house has such a nice atmosphere. On top of that, Aïda is a great host. She gave us a very nice and informative welcome and she had provided us with fruit, coffee, bread, eggs, cheese etc. for breakfast. Well, there wasn't enough for 5 days, but we didn't expect anything, so it was a pleasant surprice. Besides that, the kitchen is very well equiped, so it is very easy to cook a good meal, if you want to do that.

The house sleeps 6 people, but 2 have to sleep on a bed couch in the living room. It worked as my bed during my stay, and it was actually very comfortable. But since the only toilet in the house is located next to the living room, the other guests have to pass you while you're sleeping if they have to use the toilet at night. So I recommend to let the "heavy sleepers" use the bed couch, if you're staying more than 4 people.

The house is located north of Dublin City Center. It takes about 30 minutes to walk to the City Center. Bus stops are 1 min. away and buses towards City Center departs frequently and take you to town in no time. There's only a 15 minute walk to a train station, where the DART Train will take you to the beautiful coastline just outside of Dublin. A day trip to Howth is very recommendable. So the house is located in a calm area, but has easy access to town and lot's of nice places.

Oh..... and if you're hungry and don't feel like going into the City Center for dinner, don't hesitate to visit "Da Mimmo" A small Italian restaurant a few minutes away. Excellent freshly made Italian food!!! Actually it's worth a visit no matter what!!!

If you're going to Dublin as a group of people. Or if you just want a lot of space for yourself, I can highly recommend Aïdas place. Nice, clean, cozy and beautiful house, great host and good location. Definitely a great airbnb experience!
