I loved my stay in Colette's house! The room is very comfortable, bright, well equipped and quiet, perfect for working. The location is very convenient, easy to get around either on foot or by bus. Also, the garden is lovely and very pleasant on sunny days.
Colette is great, always with good advice and very generous, thanks to her my arrival in Ireland went smoothly and I quickly got my bearings. She is a great person to meet and to talk to!
Thank you Colette for your warm welcome, I have great memories of these three months spent in Dublin!!April 2020
I stayed at Colette's place for almost 6 months and I absolutely loved it there! She was always very helpful, kind and I felt welcome the whole time. She was always open for a chat and gave me very useful information about Dublin. I had free access to the kitchen and I cooked every night. The room is quite big and the bathroom is just next door. Her house is very central and it only takes about 30 min (walk) to get to the city center, but there are a lot of buses. I would highly recommend her as a host :) I had a really great time!! Thanks for everything Colette!! :)

I spent two wonderful months in Colette house. She was very kind and gave me lots of tips for visiting Ireland. For 2 months she was like my second mom, I really enjoyed this stay.
Thanks for everything, I highly recommend her as a host.March 2019
Colette is the best host!!! She is very kind and thoughtful. I'm sure you'll be happy if you stay at her house.

Staying in Colette's house was a very good experience for me. Colette is understanding, very helpful, friendly, a good listener. Provided me with valuable information about Dublin and neighbourhood. The room is great, very spacious, very well lit with daylight, overlooking the garden - thus quiet, having a very nice, open panoramic view of a part of Dublin. Decorated with taste. The bathroom is just next door to the room which is very convenient. I was often given fresh towels and beddings. Kitchen is well equipped. I have had easy access to all other amenities like fridge, freezer, washing machine, dryer, etc.
The bus connection to the centre is very good, too.January 2019
Colette is very a good host, kind and welcoming, i recommend.
