" Is DSL a decent enough connection to set up a small site of about 5 users max. "
Absolutely- that load is trivial unless its like a streaming media thing. I would say if its not some sort of enterprise set-up where you are contractually obligated to keep down-time to a certain level- then go for it!
Note that most DSl IP addresses are dynamic, which will cause you problems.
