The property itself is comfortable: similar in size to a 1 bedroom flat. It was the perfect size for my wife and me. The location is very good: About 10-15 minute bus ride into the City Centre. John was very accommodating, from our arrival into Dublin at 6:30a until we left. He met us outside the complex at 630a even though the guests staying in our room were not leaving for another 2 hours. He took us to a local Starbucks where he bought us a coffee, gave us a quick local rundown, and then drove us into the City for us to start our adventure, all before checking in! He also gave us use of his Leap Bus card, which saved us probably 20 Euros for back and forth trips in and out of the city for 2 days. Regarding the room, a few unique features (at least for us americans): the shower has a switch which is outside the bathroom/shower room and requires the switch to be turned on/off in order to turn the water on/off. So if you are going to take a shower, you ideally have a loved one you can hollar at to turn the switch off so you don't exit a running shower all soaking wet to turn off in the bedroom (getting floor in bathroom and bedroom wet). The mattress was not very comfortable. If I would make one suggestion, it would be to update the mattresses in the rooms. But I would not downgrade my review as a result of this. Having eye masks for sleeping was very nice since in the summer it's light until 10p or so and gets light again around 4am, and there was a skylight directly above our bed. All in all, my wife and I would unanimously recommend this property and their hospitality. Thanks again John!!

John was so welcoming and completely wonderful. His directions and instructions were very thorough and completely easy to follow. His place is spacious and perfect for two people. The location is wonderful for the price. Excellent find aware better by such a kind host! Thanks John hope to stay with you again soon!

John is a great host. The suite was very well equipped right up to the tea and cookies. He lent us his Leap card to use on the bus system. The #16 is right in front both coming and going. The suite is very quiet and peaceful.

Really enjoyed our stay at this property. Great location - short bus ride into town. Very quiet. John was a a super help, getting us to the apartment and providing lots of info.

We had a really nice time staying at this apartment. It was clean and smelled really nice. John was very friendly and took time to explain the bus system and a few other rhings to us. Highly recommend!

The vrbo hosts John & Rose were more than just accommodating. We were treated better than family! john went way above & beyond to see to our needs and make sure our stay was terrific!

Cracking apartment in the suburbs of Dublin. 10/15 minute bus journey from Temple Bar/City Centre. Tesco Metro just down the road that sells everything you will need. Finally, John the host is extremely helpful/welcoming and will give you all the information you need to maximise your stay in Dublin.

comfortable and rustic; had everything we needed, but could use a touch to make it special. John was accommodating and helpful

John met us upon our arrival and gave us access to parking behind the house, then gave us a quick tour of everything we needed to know, including how to access the buses to get into central Dublin (and even furnished us with a transport pass to use on buses and trams!) When we left, my wife inadvertently left behind a ring of great significance, but John found it and held on to it until we returned to Dublin the following week, and greeted us at the door when we arrived to retrieve it. Could not ask for a more gracious and friendly host!

John was very friendly and welcoming. The flat is well stocked for self catering purposes and close to Tesco. There is a bus route to the city centre just across the road. The flat itself is charming, clean and comfortable.

This is the perfect location to explore Dublin. The bus stops could not be any closer and the bus system is super easy to use. The owner, John kept in touch, gave very good directions and met us at the apartment when we arrived. He was able to answer all of our questions and had even provided tea and biscuits. The apartment was clean and comfortable and very well located.....just down the street from Tesco and a great pub for meals after a long day of walking. The shower gets 2 thumbs-up. I can easily recommend this home-away!

We had a comfortable stay in Dublin. Our host John, was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. He was checking everyday if everything was okay and we didn't have any issues or questions. Overall it was a very comfortable stay. I would recommend others to this home.

The accommodation on offer here is excellent value for money. Conveniently located, comfortable, clean and fully equipped. John was also a lovely host who went above and beyond during our stay. He even gave us his bus card to use during our stay, very kind of him.

John was a wonderful host - he met us and provided an overview and frequently checked to see if we needed anything. His property is conveniently located with a bus stop going directly to/from city center literally outside the door. A secure parking space is included but we parked our rental car and used the great public transportation during our stay. The unit is well outfitted and met all our needs. John provided milk and biscuits along with a variety of coffee/tea so we didn't have to immediately go to the store. We particularly loved the bedroom with vaulted ceiling and skylight! A charming wine bar, cafe, and bakery are across the street and a Tesco is a block away. This is the perfect location for a stay in Dublin!

Our host John could not have been more accommodating. Before our arrival he was a great communicator and following our arrival he was extremely helpful. As an example, we were tight on time and so he drove us to the site we wished to visit rather than have us go by bus. When I asked him for a phone adaptor he brought one right over. The property is a clean, organized, quiet 1 BR apartment in a larger home on a main street with a bus line. It suited our needs well. Jane

This was a great value! Plain, clean, and tidy apartment with a secured parking space. There is a small kitchen and a washer/dryer. Just steps from the door was a bus to the city (no transfers, 20 minutes to Trinity college) and several nice restaurants and stores within a short walk. John was a great host - he stocked the apartment with toiletries, dish and clothes soap, coffee/tea/chocolate and even provided a bus card that we could use and refill during our stay. There was some construction at the site when we stayed there, but it didn't affect our comfort.
