Made to feel welcome on arrival, which was pretty late given delayed flight. Showed around everything I needed straight away so knew where everything was. Had a simple cosy bedroom with a bathroom just across the hall in a quiet family home about 15-20min walk to the hotel where my conference was.

Taxi from the airport is ridiculous! 56 euros!Either take Sharon's offer of a lift for 35 or take the bus into Dublin then the Luas tram takes about 1h30 ish rather than 30min by car but only about 15 euros I think.

Only negative may be lack of access to the kitchen however this didn't bother me as I was there for a conference and there was plenty of option at the hotel and along the walk there.
