We were in walking distance to everything we wanted to see. Truly the heart of Dublin. There is a trade off for that though as the noise level is quite loud in the living room area since you are right above the busy street full of people/pubs/dining. I wouldn't recommend sleeping in the living room area due to the noise. Luckily there is a sturdy fire door separating the bedroom from the living room so the noise really didn't carry where you sleep. I do have to note though that there is a rather bright-green fire exit sign that cannot be turned off while you sleep. Fortunately I had a sleep mask because I'm very sensitive to light. We took a cab to and from the airport so I can't comment on the bus route, but we saw plenty of them go by outside our window so they seem to be frequent. Overall we enjoyed our stay and credit much to the location as it was so easy to walk to all the hot spots of Dublin. Thank you Sadia and Dee for allowing us to see so much of Dublin in such a short time!
