Ian was a great host. Our flight to Dublin was an early flight and he was able to accommodate us earlier than advertised. He gave us a quick tour of the house and some local Dublin knowledge which was helpful. The house itself is very cute and is only about a 20 minute walk to the centre of Dublin, in fact we walked everywhere and visited so many attractions. It's also only a 5-10 minute walk to one of the Airport Express pick up points - so handy. All in all Ian's place is a great central place to stay to see all that Dublin has to offer. I have no hesitations in recommending Ian as a host and his house as a base.
