Tom’s place was a wonderful little home away from home for our trip to Ireland. He is a warm and welcoming host. We enjoyed a meal at his cafe/bakery next door upon arrival, before checking in. Each morning we were offered a complimentary scone or muffin and coffee of our choice, which was a great way to start the day. The neighborhood is in a lovely area. It gives a different taste of Ireland away from the busy Dublin city center, though it is very easy to access transit to get all around, and there are many great pubs and food spots in walking distance. The room was cute, cozy and stylishly decorated. It does get a little warm, but opening windows and running the fan helped. The sheets were a little small for the bed but it was a very comfortable mattress. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return for any future visits to Ireland.
