Review 25:A little further than expected from Dublin.

Review 29:Quality of the bathroom

Review 32:Lovely bed and breakfast close to Swords. Well placed for City Centre and Airport. In lovely surroundings.

Review 33:Nothing

Review 34:Great location and two lovely helpful hosts. Excellent English breakfast.

Review 35:The owners were lovely, very helpful, everything was really clean and comfortable. Great B&B!!!

Review 36:We were to have 2 beds but when we arrived he had given that room to somone else. He had to find another bed. The bathroom was so smal that we decided not to use the showere. Of all our B&B's this was the worst. We had no breakfast as we had to leave too early in the a.m. I think this couple was in the business to flill all the rooms with people going to the arrport the next day. They didn't have to provide much.

Review 37:The location to Dublin airport was good

Review 38:I don't have anything negative to say about this place, it was great. The place may not have had to most spacious living areas, but that didn't matter to me. The experience was great, and the breakfast was even better!

Review 39:The owners were very friendly and I really enjoyed having my morning conversation with them. They are a lovely couple, and i hope they keep in touch. If i am ever in Ireland again, i'll be sure to stop in a say hello.

Review 40:This seems to be mainly a b & b for people who are catching morningflights out of Ireland the next day. We left very early (0500) but weretold that breakfast could be provided anyway and the service andhospitality were excellent.

Review 41:We had a banging noise during the night which kept us awake. It was coming from a door or window in the adjoining room. When we informed the owners they dealt with the issue right away and offered us a future stay. They were very professional and helpful. Because of this we would definately stay there again and also recommend it to friends and family.

Review 42:The location for Dublin Airport travel was excellent. The town of Swords was minutes away and we enjoyed a lovely meal in a local pub and then an evening walk in the countryside down beside the house. Its in a quiet and convenient location. The rooms are comfortablity furnished and there is an inviting feel about the place. The owners are friendly and helpful.

Review 43:It was very beautiful and peaceful. It was in Swords and not in Dublin so it was lovely to be outside of the city. Beautiful fresh air and countryside. Also, the windows open and we could get fresh air during the night.

Review 44:A little trouble finding and figuring out the bus instructions to get there via public transportation. Next time I would e-mail the hosts with my questions ahead of time, I am sure they would have been happy to help.

Review 45:Very friendly and helpful hosts, quiet location in a less touristy area. Easy to get to Dublin and very convenient for the airport. We felt very comfortable here!

Review 46:The family (owners) were very accommodating, friendly and helpful. The rooms, though simple in decor, were efficient, clean and very comfortable. The property is overall well maintained, including the gardens. The Irish breakfast was very good and tailored to your needs/likes and the brown bread was very good. The location was very convenient to Dublin airport, our arrival point.

Review 47:Riversdale was very close to the airport and the M50 so easy for a late arrival and to get away in the morning. Michael was very helpful with travel tips for Ireland

Review 48:The last part of the walk to the b&b is a fairly narrow, unlit part, with traffic from both sides. For people with a car (or even a bike) this would not be a problem, but if you walk there at night you need to be watchful of traffic.

Review 49:I only stayed at Riversdale a few days, but my time there was very good. Michael and Kathryn were very helpful and Michael gave me a lift after my stay to move my suitcases to my permanent residence.
