Had a nice stay here with my wife and 7 month old baby. We had never been to Dublin and were a little surprised by the chaos in temple bar, but that's entirely on us for not doing enough research. The apartment is in a great location if you want to be near all the city center activities. I would absolutely recommend this place for most travellers but not those travelling with small children. The apartment was not exactly sound proof, in the bedrooms the sounds from the street were heard fairly loud and clear. Still, it's a great location if you want to be in the busy area and the apartment was otherwise as advertised.
