What a pleasure it was to stay with Emma and John.

The house on the North Circular Road was easy to find and they have parking in the laneway around the back.

They showed me to the room at the top of the house – it was exceptionally clean and I was impressed by the amount of natural light in the room. You can’t see it from the photos but there’s a skylight over the shower which floods the en-suite with light.

They had fresh flowers and some fresh fruit in the room. The bed was dressed with really high quality sheets and was incredibly comfortable.

There’s a bus stop outside the door which brought me straight into the city in less than 20 minutes.

Emma and John were very helpful, providing me with directions to everywhere I needed to go and providing me with great recommendations for local restaurants and pubs.

I’d recommend their place to anyone who wanted something a little bit special in Dublin.
