Aliona and Kieran gave us great directions on how to reach their place and Aliona arrived exactly when she said she would (even though I could not get my phone to work and had promised to contact her 30 minutes ahead of arrival). It's just a 15 minute drive from the airport in a quiet neighborhood and there was ample street parking. We had the 3rd floor to ourselves (2 bedrooms and a private bathroom (includes a shower)). We also had full use of the kitchen, which was lovely. There is a grocery store a few minutes walk away and a nice cafe (Scrumptious Cafe). You are only a 20-minute walk from the National Botanical Gardens, which are fantastic, and a few minutes walk from the bus stop to take you into downtown Dublin (about a 15-minute trip). Their dog, Daisy, is an exuberant soul and added a touch of home to the place. The Wifi worked great.

Aliona and Kieran really went the extra mile, helping us with boarding passes, giving us tips on how to navigate the airport, the buses, and the surroundings; great tips on places to see (e.g. Sally Gap); and were responsive to our every question.
