Katie and her family (also their dog Ruby) are so lovely! I lived with them for three months and I really felt like home. The house was clean and just a wonderful place! Thank you so much and hope we will see each other again!

Katie and her husband are lovely people and the stay with them was really nice. They are very considerate and recommended us cool places to visit. Their home is comfortable, clean and welcoming, we felt straight at home! (Their dog Ruby is soo cute). Thank you so much <3

Não gostei de me hospedar com a Katie, apesar de simpática e muito receptiva, odiei todas as vezes em que entraram no meu quarto sem autorização. Na porta do meu quarto não havia tranca, possibilitando essa invasão de privacidade. Sem contar que eu recebi o quarto com uma gaveta quebrada e em seguida, a fechadura quebrou. A Katie insinuou que eu deveria ter mais cuidado com as coisas, como se eu fosse o culpado pela quebra das coisas. Sem contar a vez que eu lavei roupa na casa e quando cheguei encontrei minhas roupas molhadas no chão da cozinha. E por fim, eu fui obrigado a sair um dia antes da casa porque foi me solicitado isso, sem nenhuma possibilidade de reembolso pelo dia não utilizado. Enfim, eu não voltaria a me hospedar

That’s not true… Wesley did text me to say the door was broken so we opened the door to check what’s needed… he was out at most time… we did mention to him to be careful…
I did ask him to remove clothes from washing machine after the wash but he left in washing all day I had to remove the clothes as I need the washing on.. he didn’t respect me..
I never told him to leave day earlier he chose to leave one day earlier… but told him to leave midday because he booked through Homestay until 4th august but he left on 3rd his wishes… I had a plan on 3rd august & didn’t expect him leave a day early , his flight was on 3rd august… I’m right to refuse refund for one day early… that’s how it worksJuly 2022
Katie is a fantastic host, My stay was peaceful and the house is very clean.

I had an amazing time with Katie and her family! They are lovely and very kind people and they helped me whenever I had a question. The house is very clean and quiet and I felt very comfortable there. I stayed in Bray for 5 months and the area is beautiful with lots to do and see! I would 100% recommend this host family. Thank you so much for a great time and for sharing your home with me!
Hope to see you again soon! <3

Missing you & hoping to see each other againDecember 2021
Verdaderamente no tengo queja alguna de la Sra. Katie y su familia. Desde el primer día estuve muy cómodo y ellos estuvieron atentos a cualquier necesidad que tuviera.
Es una casa muy acojedora, respetan tú espacio y también llegas a sentirte como en casa.
1000% recomendable.
Que Dios bendiga este maravilloso hogar.

Katie was very kind and helpful. I really enjoyed my stay in Bray and would reccommend her to anyone looking for a place to stay in Ireland!
