    Can't recommend this homestay enough! Especially if you're in Dublin for longer like me, this is a really good option. The house is a very cozy home in a very safe and calm, rather posh, neighborhood. For me as a female traveling alone it felt really safe. The tram which is right down the street takes you into city centre in 15 minutes. The kitchen holds everything you need in order to cook like oils, spices etc so you only need to get the basics for yourself. Hosts are so very friendly and really made the stay so comfortable!
