The location is what's best about this apartment as it's within walking distance of St. Patrick's Cathedral (4 min), Guinness (11 min), Teeling Distillery (4 min), Kilmainhan Gaol (32 min), St. Stephen's (12 min), Temple Bar (14 min), and Trinity College (20 min).
PROS - location, felt safe (in gated apartment complex), good communication (I never had any contact with Patrick, only with Charlene and it was all done via text so never saw anyone in person. She did send a picture of the gate that I was to enter, which greatly helped us and the taxi driver), comfortable sitting room (lots of natural light, plenty of room, and couch was comfortable), WiFi, kitchen (had basics, microwave, tea kettle dishwasher, and washing machine)
CONS - needing some upkeep (a chair was broken and had a missing shower door which made it very difficult to shower), noise (on a corner so a lot of traffic which made it difficult to hear movies on my laptop when windows were open so had to wear earbuds), couldn't get tv to work (was at 22:00 so didn't want to bother anyone so just streamed on my laptop), cleaning (surface cleaning seemed to be done but not beyond this as I found someone's vibrater under the bed), might bother some that there is a funeral home located on the ground floor directly under the apartment
