Que dire si ce n'est que Gaby et Kevin sont des hôtes hors pairs! On est gâté à tous points de vue. Tout plein d'attentions, de délicieux repas, des bonnes blagues, des chansons, bref, on se sent comme à la maison. Et en plus, l'emplacement est parfait, à deux pas du tramway.

Excellent place to stay. The housse is very clean. Gabi and her famille are fantastic. She is a very great cooker and all the family was very welcoming. The house is not far from the Luas (5 minutes) which take you in 20 minutes in the city center. I hope we will return in Dublin and stay again at Gabrielle's house. Thank you so much and I hope we will see you again.

Mon fils et moi avons passé 5 jours à Dublin. Nous avons passé un très agréable moment chez Gabrielle. La chambre est très confortable, l'environnement très calme. La ligne de tramway se trouve à 5mn de la maison et nous conduit en 20 minutes au centre de Dublin. Gabrielle est une extraordinaire cuisinière, les repas du soir étaient excellents !
Si je reviens à Dublin je n'hésiterai pas une seconde à revenir chez Gabrielle et son mari. Je conseillerai leur logement à mes amis.Host reply
Thank you Serge for your lovely review. You and your son Robin are welcome to come back anytime.

Gabi and Kevin were great! Both were charming and made me feel at home. Gabi was very maternal and checked in on me during my travels. Being a solo traveler, this was definitely appreciated!

My sister and me had a wonderful time in Gabi’s and Kevin’s home. They are both lovely people and did everything to make us feel at home. Should we come back to Dublin, we will definitely stay with them again! we are very grateful for my time with them and couldn‘t have asked for better hosts.
Mi hermana y yo pasamos un tiempo maravilloso en la casa de Gabi y Kevin. Ambos son personas encantadoras e hicieron todo lo posible para que nos sintiéramos como en casa. Si volvemos a Dublín, definitivamente nos quedaremos con ellos nuevamente. estamos muy agradecidas por mi tiempo con ellos y no podríamos haber pedido mejores anfitriones.Host reply

Gabrielle ist eine ganz sympathische, freundliche und liebevolle Gastgeberin. Wir haben sie nur morgens gesehen, und das auch nicht immer, weil wir viel unterwegs waren. Das Dinner haben wir (leider) gar nicht in Anspruch genommen. Das Zimmer war einfach und sauber, es war alles da, was wir brauchten. Das Gemeinschaftsbad wurde auch von anderen benutzt, aber wir sind zeitlich gut klargekommen. Die Unterkunft ist vom Zentrum ca. 30 Tram-Minuten entfernt, was uns nicht gestört hat. Die Haltestelle ist ein paar Gehminuten entfernt.
Wir kommen gern wieder! :)
