The hosts were just lovely. Ciarán checked us in and gave us some great tips on arrival of local bars and restaurants (suitable for vegetarians which is usually hard) he was friendly, approachable and knowledgable on the area. We walked to/from the centre which is around 30 mins- we needed to burn off what we'd eaten ha! The route we took passed lots of bars and restaurants on route :) which is good for finding somewhere out of the Temple bar area! One of our faves was a Thai restaurant called Neon!
MaryAnn was lovely, we didn't see her as much due to work shifts but she made us feel very welcome and offered her assistance with anything we may need- we kept in touch alot via email also and she answered all our many queries!
Cannot fault anything on the room, it was clean and cosy. Breakfast was lovely.
The area is quiet and felt very safe.
We would 100% recommend MaryAnn & Ciarán's home to anyone visiting Dublin.
