Excellent location, right smack in the middle of Temple Bar (literally one block away). Can't really emphasize this point enough. Almost any shopping or dining you might require is available within a three block radius of the apartment. It's right in the middle of most of the tourist spots. The accommodations were perfect for our needs. As other reviewers have mentioned there is substantial noise, but it's quite manageable with a set of earplugs. The roof patio is a real plus, and the decoration is quite charming. Really enjoyed our stay.
