I had a great stay at Paula's house. She has a lovely home with all the comforts including excellent central heating. The room itself is big and spacious with ample wardrobe/storage space. The location is West Dublin so about a 45 minute bus ride into the centre (longer during rush hour), there is a bus stop within 5 mins walk. There is a fantastic shopping centre nearby (15 minute walk) and Lidl and Aldi within 5 minute walk. The neighbourhood is good and safe. Paula is a fantastic, energetic and flexible host who looks after her house and guests very well e.g. if there is any problem she will have it fixed asap. I felt very comfortable here and included in Paula's family yet she gave me all the privacy I needed. I cannot recommend Paula highly enough as a host and now a friend. Good luck!
