I stayed with Oksana for 20 weeks :) Oksana is a very helpful and friendly person. She will answer you any questions and will support everyone as much as she can. Her two children were friendly and helpful as well. There is a small dog and a cat in the house and you can play with them whenever you want. But if you don’t like you don’t have to :) I used the kitchen whenever I want and cooked my own meals. The bathroom is a bit older but everything is working. My room was small but fine - bed and wardrobe. To the bus stop is around 8-10 minutes by feet’s. To Dublin city center it is around 30-40 minutes and to DCU around 20-30 minutes depends on traffic. The airport is just 10 minutes away. In Swords you have a big shopping center and a few pubs to go out and drink a good pint of Guinness! Really miss that!
