    The host was very welcoming! He provided good information about busing into city center, attractions, groceries, and answered all of our questions. The host was really helpful and kind. Continental breakfast was very good, providing several options. We appreciated that the hosts provided food items for my wife's dietary needs. It was quiet with a comfortable bed.

    The room was small. If you're not used to traffic and airport traffic as the room is at the front of the house.

    The hosts are lovely people and are very welcoming. They allowed me to cook my dinner in their kitchen, which was great. The bed was comfy.

    Comfortable home, and the hosts Margaret and Gordon were very welcoming. Our plane was very delayed and we got there well after midnight, and Gordon was so gracious to wait up and let us in so late at night and show us everything. Our beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed for a nice breakfast. This was a great spot to stay by the airport.

    Pub across the road was very noisy untill early hours of the morning that's not their fault but still hard to listen to music blasting at 1am.the night was warm so windows had to be open.

    Hosts Gordon and Margaret are fantastic people it's like being at home their brilliant at making you comfortable.

    We occasionally noticed the smell of smoking in the house

    It was a nice house, good location. We had one of the nice rooms with a great view from the window for three people, good beds, a clean bathroom, and a very friendly, helpful host couple! We also had breakfast and everything we needed. The check-in and out experience was great.

    Basic Stay for Budget Travelers
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Budget Single Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Single-room was very small. The room's only window was sealed closed, no fresh air. Cleanliness in both the room and bathroom was not at highest level. The breakfast offer was simply not good.

    Checked-in very late, but it was not a problem at all. The hosts are nice people. Location is not phenomenal, but well connected with both Dublin city center and the airport. Fairly priced, compared to Dublin's city center staggering accommodation price rates.

    The bed was comfortable but a television in the room would have made it even better.

    Margaret and Gordon were exceptionally friendly and were very helpful regarding information about transport and where to visit. The continental breakfast was filling and there is a supermarket and lively pub very nearby. The bathroom shower was also very good. The bus stops were a short walk away and the number 16 bus goes direct to the airport and to Dublin city centre. I would definitely stay there again if I am in the area.

    The breakfast parlour, where you prepare your own breakfast, does not have a sink. With a sink it would have been perfect.

    The best thing about the place is the warm welcome by the hosts, their kindness and helpfulness. I felt almost at home. The room was snug and tiny an I liked it a lot, a little nest. Worth mentioning is the excellent bus connection to the airport and city. Pub, supermarket and takeaway are just around the corner.

    The heating system was down the second night. No TV in the room. Internet is slow. When other guests and the owner walking to the toilet or up/down stairs, you hear everything.

    The owner is a very nice couple, they live in the same house while some rooms are available for rent. I have a small room, but a very comfortable bed. Very basic breakfast, bread, yogurt, ham, and jam.
