We booked this stay for a last-minute trip to Dublin for New Year's Eve. With that in mind, we focused primarily on location, and this spot in Temple Bar is as central as you can get. Hundreds of restaurants and bars, the River Liffey at the end of the road, right near a bus stop. Location is perfect. But if your purpose in Dublin is anything other than partying, I'm not sure if I would recommend this. The apartment is the top floor of a six story walk up, and is clearly designed and rented for the party purpose. The floors and walls are grimy, the beds torn, windows moldy. The refrigerator had clearly never been cleaned, to the point that I was hesitant storing milk for coffee. The bed sheets in one room had hair on them. The walls are paper thin, and every noise is heard throughout the apartment. For a group wanting to have a good weekend, I would absolutely recommend. If I were with my family, or here on business, I would look elsewhere.
