I highly recommend Cian's place if you are staying in Dublin!
Cian is a great host, he...
... is very accommodating - he allowed us to check-in early, which was much appreciated as we were very jetlagged. He also let us use his phone for an emergency-ish situation with no questions asked. Saved us roaming charges.
... has good attention to detail - for example, there are travel adapters and different USB charging cords in case you forget yours!
... is extremely helpful! Cian gave us very thorough directions and different transit options to get from the airport to his place, including how much each cost.
The place itself is...
... transit friendly - we took the bus and it was around ~30 minutes from the airport
... within walking distance to all the city centre tourist attractions (e.g., Dublin Castle, Ha'Penny Bridge, etc.) - we opted out on not renting a car while being in Dublin city centre and do not regret this decision haha
... comes with a cat! I personally love cats, but if you have allergies, I'd just let Cian know.
Thanks, Cian!
