My friend and I have stayed for two nights during Saint Patrick’s weekend.
Even if we stayed for just two days we had a great time and Paula and her husband made us feel at home. They are both very lovely and helpful, the house is clean and conveniently located close to both the bus stops to go to and to come from Dublin.It was really a pleasure to meet them :)

Anna and Lisa where two wonderful young ladies. We had a great time chatting and listening to how they got on celebrating Saint Patrick's day. Lisa also told us a lot about certain parts of Italy. We would recommend both ladies to any host and hope they return to us again .:)

I wasn't able to stay with Paula because of personal reasons, but I'm sure my stay wouldn've been very pleasant.
Host reply
As Carlee has said due to personal reasons she could not stay she contacted me and explained. We had chatted for months on messenger prior to this .Hopefully we will meet someday.

Paula est une femme généreuse et très sympatique. Elle met les invités à l'aise tout de suite et se met en quatre pour satisfaire nos demandes. Elle est tout simplement géniale et comme elle dirait "no problem". Nous recommandons cet hébergement.
Petit "bémol" le bruit de la route juste à côté. Mais vite oublié par l'accueil de paula et son mari.
Elle est très attachante et s'intéresse aux invités.Host reply
Laurence and Bruno where beautiful guests would have them stay anytime recommend them to anyone host xxx

I was really upset about the road noise. It disturbed my sleep and my whole time in the room. There is no escape from it. It is very unpleasant. I wish the description had admitted that. The description is that the place is by a park. It does not mention road noise. The main road has noise almost non-stop. The customer should be given an accurate description of the environment at the place. Also the owner smoked right by the door of the house and smoke smell was obvious in the house. So, there was not clean air and the noise was terrible. Also the dog barked, yapped. The host is pleasant but the place needs a more accurate description.
Host reply
I am so sorry Lorna the road upset you so much no other guests have ever had an issue. The park is right outside the appartment my page does say smoking outside .(only) and Sam is a wonderful dog who greats everyone in a beautiful way as all my previous guests have said in past reviews. Again I appolige if you did not enjoy your one night stay .
