Gabriela is a sweet and kind lady, who responds to messages immediately, even while occupied with other issues in her life.
Her place is very home-like. It’s full of a group of internationals who visit, live and work in Ireland. Some get up at 4 or 5 a.m. to do this.
So if you are looking for a place to stay, party in Dublin until 2 am and come home under the influence (whatever influence that may be!), waking everyone up in the middle of the night, you will NOT BE WELCOME ! For that, there are hostels with 20 people in a room, who might accept this kind of loud behavior.
If you want an absolutely quiet, side-street local place, and want a good night’s sleep, whether alone or 2-4 persons in a room, then this is the place for you.
It is also clean.
There’s a kitchen, everything you need.
The residents are all very congenial, pleasant people, who are considerate of others.
This is necessary because there is only one shower. But because of the good communication, this was no problem.
