Michael was kind enough to let us check in early and he was available for communication throughout. The location was good as far as proximity to other areas such as Temple Bar, Guinness Storehouse, and Kilmainham Gaol. It worked well for a family of 2 adults and one toddler to explore Dublin.
Others have mentioned the street noise and while the 'standard' street noise wasn't all bad (or easily handled by earplugs), there was some extremely loud metal banging very early in the morning on 2 times we were there. I truly don't know what it was as I didn't see any construction nearby. The window in one room doesn't seem to close fully so that probably exacerbates the issue. I'll also note that the Wi-Fi doesn't work in the 2 bedrooms (it only works in the living area). We had 3 modern devices and this was the case for all of them. I'm not sure how any Wi-Fi hot spots can be so limited in a relatively small apartment. Nonetheless, while it was a tad frustrating, I don't consider a significant detriment to our stay.
