We stayed one night at Ivan's place. Just as well because we were extremely disappointed with this accommodation. We informed Ivan about our arrival time, but when we got there the house was absolutely freezing. We had to ring him to ask how to turn on the heating, it was on a timer but unfortunately not on. We had to light the stove ourselves, not a warm welcome by any means. That wasn't the worst, the bathroom and kitchen were absolutely filthy. We did not use the shower or bath as the they were too dirty. The appliances, kitchenware, cupboards, fridge, kitchen utensils etc. were very dirty. We had to sterilize the few things we used. The kitchen towels smelt stale and there was a lot of food in the fridge, most of it not in good condition. We were in Glendalough to do Quest Glendalough the following day, if this wasn't the case we would not have spent the night there. The following day I requested a refund from Ivan, he informed me that I had to do this via Airbnb which I did. They got in touch with Ivan and we got a small refund of 50 euro, we paid 120 for the night. This was disappointing as we requested more. Ivan's place has potential but we could not recommend it in the present state. It needs a major cleaning.
