This is a safe and secure, cozy apartment with a GREAT location - overlooking the river Liffey, on the edge of the Temple Bar neighborhood, within walking distance of many if not all of the attractions of central Dublin. It is comfortable, if a bit spartan - an easy, very functional base for exploring the city. The hosts are gracious, helpful, and easily available; there is a delightful pub just downstairs owned by the same people I believe. Do be aware that it is on a busy street, over a pub and taxi stand/ bus stop/ bin pick-up, in an area of active nightlife - thus there is a bit of street noise at night, pretty much every night, so if you are a light sleeper, bring some earplugs.
