The place was clean and user-friendly, the building very safe and modern. The apartment was really central but was just far enough away from the wildness of the Temple Bar district so that we could just barely hear the noise if we strained our ears. Of course, a few partiers passed in the street below on their way home, but they didn't stop and bother us for long. And when we wanted to go over there it was just a short two-block walk, and only a half-block walk from the River Liffey. In addition to the many bars and restaurants, there are three breakfast locations within half a block, and there is even a theater in an old church just across the street.
