John was pretty helpful, pleasant and well know Dublin. I really appreciate all his help. His flat is a win-win in price and location. There are few buses that goes to the city center 49 and 16 (final destination airport), the bus stop is 50m walk. It's closer to hop off at 400 Harold's Cross road, if you go from the center. Next stop would be near Tesco supermarket (5 min walk or less). You could also take a bus at Rathgar road (10 min walk), we used 3 buses 15, 15A, 15B which also go to city center and back. The district is really safe and quite. The flat was much better than at pictures, cosy and with huge kitchen. If you have a car, you could park it right away. Everything we need we had there, wifi, kettle, microwave, TV, water heater, hair drier, washing machine and more. We had a breakfast at Becket & Bull it 5 min walk down to Harold's Cross road. My wife and I traveled a lot, John was really really kind to us. Huge thanks and thumbs up.
