I live on a quiet street, only 5 minutes from the bus that takes you into Dublin city centre, a ten-minute walk for the Luas ( tram) which also travels into the city centre by a different route. This part of Dublin could have you in Wicklow & Kildare within half an hour. Room available is a very large double room with a king-size bed, with TV & tea & coffee making facilities. Wireless internet available all over the house. There is a nice conservatory & sitting area in the garden should we ever have the weather. I live alone, I have no pets. I am a keen photographer so I know all the most scenic places to visit. I live within a short drive of 3 shopping centres & I would be prepared to deliver & collect you, time allowing, to anyone of your choice.
The bathroom is separate and at times others may share it with you.
The shuttle from the airport to the nearest collection point to me can be found on the following:

Room was clean comfortable and super quiet. Slept really well and was free to come and go as I pleased, little Spar, pharmacy, pub and fish n chips just down the road if you need anything. 5 mins to Luas and Ann kindly picked me up when I arrived with my bag! Would definitely stay again if I were visiting Dublin!

Sorry for a bad review. We had an availability to get a breakfast at her home and there was a coffee machine in the room and those were nice 2 details ( although there was only a decaf with another normal coffee box empty). Except that, Ann was not available for any further information, she was either in a hurry or not at home or in the living room with a door closed.. she did not explain us anything about the breakfast, things in the house, the neighborhood, buses, until I asked her (only about the breakfast) and the worst of all was the bed. It was completely impossible to sleep there, it has an enormous hole in the middle, me and my couple could not sleep more than a few hours per night. The vacations are taken in order to take a rest and it was really an exhausting part.

Daneja,
I am very sorry your stay was not a positive experience.
If I am at home I am always available to my guests, all you had to do was knock on the living room door & I would have been more than happy to be of assistance to you.
I was unaware that the coffee was empty & I would have rectified that immediately if I had been informed.
Most guests access the buses & other transport information through their internet & do not usually require my help, those that have to ask always get my best attention.
If there was a problem with the bed it would have been ideal to say something after the first night as there is not a lot that can be done after the guest has gone home.
Again, I am very sorry about your experience & as I have never had a bad review before, I dearly would have liked to have known of the problems while you were still at my home, therefore allowing me to make your stay more enjoyable.August 2019
Ann est une personne assez sympathique. Le gros avantage de l’habitation est la proximité d’un arrêt de bus, Dublin y est bien desservi.

During my one night stay I found Ann to be a friendly respectful host, room was clean, bright, large and house is in a quiet area.

La maison ainsi que la Chambre sont très accueillantes, c'est propre et tout est à disposition! Le centre de Dublin est facilement accessible (10/15 minutes de bus) mais le prix des transports est à prendre en compte, environ 3,30 € pour un trajet jusqu'au centre.
Ann est gentille et serviable, je recommande!June 2019
