Beautiful Home! John is an amazing host.
One of the coolest homes we’ve ever stayed in. It’s in immaculate condition, maintained beautifully. There were fresh flowers placed all throughout which was such a nice touch. All of the furniture and decorations felt so well thought out, like a curated space in a museum. The back garden area was a dream come true for those who want to spend some time outside but be covered from the elements should there be inclement weather. John met us at the house to check us in showed us around to tell us how a few things worked. He has a long list of places to check out, pubs to visit, restaurants to eat at. We went to a lot of his suggested areas and every single one of them were spot-on wonderful. He even invited us to join him for a walk in the Dublin Botanic Gardens, which was so generous and unexpected. Was a wonderful day spent with him and now we can call him a friend as well as a great host.

John was great!
John, the host, was so amazing! He left a ton of recommendations and information for us to look at, and met us at the property when we arrived to walk us through the house and show us everything! The house was also extremely clean, and I am a clean freak so I check things like the baseboards etc, everything was immaculately kept and the original charm was awesome! We would definitely recommend this property!

Very charming, old house. Loved all the space we had and the patio was probably my wife’s favorite part. Great location. Could walk to the city centre or take the Luas/bus if you wanted to. John was great and very helpful as well.

Great location
The history on the flat is wonderful and it is well placed between the airport and within a mile of most tourist attractions. The property manager reached out several times to check on us and give suggestions for nearby places to visit that were not as touristy. The neighborhood was dirty but not sure I could take a star off for that since the seagulls are to blame, kind of. I did take one star off for the mattresses. We all woke up daily with pain in our backs. Overall we all had a wonderful time.

Wonderful property and a fantastic host!
John was a fantastic host. He was flexible with us about check in and allowed us to drop bags off a few hours early after a long day of travel and an overnight flight. We decided to rent cars a day early before really thinking about where we’d park, and when I asked John about it he had guest passes for us at the ready. On check out day, I locked myself out without taking my car keys (like an idiot), and John met me at the apartment and helped look for the keys and was very zen and accommodating during a quite stressful moment for me and my family. The house itself is historic and cute, and is in a neighborhood of row house dating back to the mid 19th century. John's tasteful selection of art and furniture (many from his own travels) were interesting and made the place feel like a real home. It is located a short walk from the light rail and with a visitor leap card this place is perfect. You can get to the hustle and bustle of downtown in a few minutes, but don't suffer the load and rowdy noise of staying in the touristy bits of city center / Temple Bar. The bedrooms were nice, roomy, and comfortable. The bathroom was nice and large too. Two bathrooms would have been nice considering we were six in number but it’s an old property so completely understandable. We would definitely stay here again, and will be telling our friends about this gem. Thanks John!

My husband and I stayed a month. We walked everywhere. John was there to greet us on the first day and he was so accommodating. He actually brought us on a tour of the neighborhood on the second day. Anytime we had a question or a problem he helped us. We have been coming to Dublin for years and we never had the opportunity to explore this side of the city.

Our stay in Dublin was lovely! Although in an older neighborhood in Dublin, the house is within walking distance of all the places you might want to visit. The house was well stocked with everything we needed for our 6-night stay. John was a charming and accommodating host!

Amazing Victorian Townhouse
We really enjoyed our stay in Dublin in this amazing townhouse. John welcomed us upon arrival, gave us a tour of the house, had lovely lilies on the shelf, milk in the fridge for morning coffee. We immediately felt at home. The kitchen was well stocked with absolutely everything one might need to cook their own meals. There is a lovely little terrace just outside the kitchen where one can have their morning coffee / dinner. We would definitely stay at John’s townhouse if we are fortunate enough to travel to Dublin again.
