    I would recommend Mary to anyone. She went over and beyond anything I had expected! She has a heart of gold and made me feel really comfortable in her home. It is in a lovely, quiet location and not a far walk from both a bus stop and the dart. It was a home away from home, loved it so much! Thank you for everything Mary!!

    We had a great stay at Marys place and we felt very comfortable and welcome. Everything was clean and the train station and bus stops for several bus lines are close by. Moreover, the local pub Watermill is also worth as visit. So, we can recommend Marys house and Raheny as a great place to explore Dublin, Howth and other highlights. Thank you Mary for having us. Best regards

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
