Alessandro's apartment is in a very good location along the Liffey river and just down the street from the Guinness Storehouse. Although not right in the middle of the action of Temple Bar, the walk is short, and the calm quiet of the 5th floor apartment was nice when sleeping at night. The balcony is great for morning coffee and a great view of the area. Both the bedroom and living room (with fold out sofa for a bed) can be closed off for privacy if two couples or children are staying. Alessandro was excellent to communicate with and provided all that we asked for, even our personal parking space in the basement of the building. The building is very secure with all entry doors locked requiring a key to gain access to the building, elevator/stairway, and apartment. I would certainly stay with Alessandro again.
