My husband an I stayed at Massimo's place for three nights on our stay on Dublin. We really liked the neighbourhood, the flexibility on times for us to check in and check out, as well as the view from the balcony. Although it was about a 10 minute walk to temple bar, along the river Liffey the walk was nice and easy to navigate. And for the price it is way better than the regular hotel rates for the city. I would say the only area for improvement would be to fix the balcony door so it fully seals when it's shut, with traffic going by below on the street you could hear things outside pretty clearly.
