Beautiful house and Louise was a great hostess.

I could not have expected better from my stay with Louise and her family. They were incredibly helpful and welcoming, making me feel like I was a true member of the household. They made my stay in Dublin even more enjoyable, and for that I cannot thank them enough!

Louise made me welcome but without any undue fuss. She and Paul were helpful with local transport and places to eat. We found a mutual interest in life in Australia.

The host cancelled the booking 3 days before the arrival date.

I was at Louise's house for a month and it was an incredible experience. I felt at home and they welcomed me as one of the family. Louise accompanied me to visit some of the most important places in Dublin and we even went on a weekend trip. His daughters are lovely and the house is very cozy. At the end of the month I did not want to return to my house, I was really comfortable, I would love to visit them again.

I'm enthusiastic about the homestay at Louise. Louise and her family are very nice, friendly and helpful hosts. The house, the room and the outdoors are beautiful. Excellent :)

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.
