**COVID-19 UPDATE**
Please note that during covid we are only accepting internal guests, unfortunately we can not currently accept guests from outside of Ireland. Thank you for your understanding.
You will be guests in our beautiful home which we make available on a bed & breakfast basis, with limited use of the kitchen. Our home is situated in an area of north Dublin known as Cabra. It is just 2 kilometres to the city centre and local transport is now even better with the extension of the Luas line, Dublin's light rail system which takes just 20 minutes to take you into O'Connell Street. We are located right by the new campus of The Dublin Institute of Technology home to the new urban centre of Grangegorman. We are a relaxed couple and can offer you either a double bedroom complete with TV and WiFi and/ or a single bedroom. You will have access to a private bathroom right by the bedrooms. Access to the kitchen in the evenings is prohibited but I will provide toast, cereal, tea, coffee and juice during the week.
PLEASE NOTE:
- check in time 15.00 pm **unless differently agreed with the host prior the booking**
- check out time 12.00 pm

Our home runs smoothly as a bed & breakfast option and I do not allow cooking in my kitchen. We can discuss use of space in the fridge and an option to make light snacks. However, this needs to be done on a case by case basis and needs to be agreed in advance of booking and arrival.
Guests have access to the washing machine once a week for light washing.
Thanks Irene

Irene est une dame formidable, qui ne souhaite qu'une seule chose : rendre notre séjour agréable! Très à l'écoute, elle nous renseigne très bien sur Dublin et sur l'Irlande en général, c'est une très jolie rencontre.
La maison est dans un quartier très très calme, résidentiel, à moins d'1min à pied de la station de bus et à 20-30min à pied de l'hyper centre. Excellent pour profiter de la ville sans en avoir le bruit!
Je recommande vivement cette location et cette rencontre!Host reply

Irene und ihre Familie war sehr freundlich und es gab keine Probleme. Die Zimmer waren sauber und ordentlich. Da wir am Samstag schon sehr früh los mussten, hat sie uns das Frühstück schon am Tag vorher vorbereitet. Der Weg zum Bus war kurz und mit dem Taxi kommt man auch für 10-15€ schnell in die Stadt. Super nett und gerne wieder!

I really enjoyed my stay. Irene was a great host and has a beautiful home. She made me feel so welcome and ensured that I didn't want for anything. Truly a home away from home. I look forward to staying and visiting her again.

I've stayed numerous times with Irene, Jimmy and family. Every time I stay they can't be more helpful and accommodating. I always look at it as a home from home experience and look forward to my next stay there. Location is also excellent and has very good transport links for the city centre and only a couple of minutes walk to Phoenix park..

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
