I stayed with Jim and his partner, Gladys for 4 nights. Jim was very welcoming, friendly, honest and helpful. I was pre-warned before I booked that the house was in the process of being renovated but this did not matter because I had planned to be out all day. I had pre-booked trips/tours and this meant that I leave the house early in the mornings and returned late evenings.
The accommodation is located just on the outskirt of Dublin town/city in a quiet residential area. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes slow walking to reach the town centre. Or as Jim mentioned in his description on Airbnb, there is a 150 bus that stops almost outside the house, which is one minute walk away.
Would I stay there again – YES, I would.
I wish Jim and Gladys all the best in completing the renovation of their home.
