We had been playing our Dublin trip by ear and booking lodgings upon arrival at each city. So we arrived in the Dublin area in the early evening and still hadn't booked a place. After calling several bed and breakfasts, which were full, and seeing that hotels were overpriced, we finally found that Sean's house had vacancy. When I booked the reservation he was not home, but he immediately came home to meet us and set everything up. He was extremely friendly and suggested a great part of town to walk to for some pubs. In the morning we had access to coffee and tea in the kitchen. We had a flight to catch the next morning and it was very convenient that he was only 15 minutes away from the airport.
