The photos in this place do it justice. It is big open and spacious. It has a great kitchens, two bathrooms, one with shower. The place is right in the middle of temple bar and in the night life. If you have no interest in the are there is no need to be here. At night beginning about 5pm the noise level on the streets rise and you can easily hear it from the apartment. That said, they bedrooms have installed sound proof windows that do a great job of shielding the noise out. The small bed on the top floor also is relatively quiet. The kitchen is small and serviceable, but a few hiccups. The wine opener was broken and I asked it be replaced but ended up buying one myself. Also there was coffee but no mechanism to make it. There was a little pod machine and some cone filters but no pods or cone. The owner did comp us 20 euros to get coffee at the shop below-nice but not the same as getting coffee in your pajamas. We also ran out of toilet paper and couldn't find any extra and there were no paper towels for clean up. We were told we could check in at 10am because no one was in the day before and arrived hoping for shower after a long flight. But when we arrived, the place was being cleaned and all we could do was drop our bags which was helpful. David gave good recommendations for food, but a great little fish place around the corner was really a good deal-Fish Shack Cafe. Despite the small hiccups we enjoyed the central location and proximity to music in the bars (exceptional) and the space for our family. We all slept well despite the noise.
