Dara's place is in a cool location right around the corner from "Chinatown". It didn't take me and my 3 girl friends long to get to the places we wanted to go in the city. He was very helpful with letting us know about some places to eat, bars, etc... Everything seemed to be clean. Just want to mention, because I didn't look into this deep enough, he has no WIFI and will expect $50 cash deposit for key replacement. He assured us we'd get the money back even though he'd be out of town, so one of his friend's brought it by (who was nice as well). Again, this was totally mentioned in his profile - we just neglected to pay attention to those details. Overall good place to stay in Dublin and informative host!
