The great location, in the heart of Temple Bar, makes it easy to explore Dublin. You can easily walk to all the famous tourist attractions (Guinness Storehouse, Trinity College, the Whiskey Museum, etc.). Gill was very communicative about the meet-up point and check-in was very easy.
I stayed with my family for three nights during the month of August. The two bedrooms overlook a few bars and a somewhat main road, so there is definitely some ambient noise from party-goers and cars. Maybe it's because it was summer, but Sunday and Monday night were especially loud party nights. Tuesday night wasn't too bad, but I would definitely recommend ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.
