Location is amazing, and wonderful views of the Ha'Penney bridge--right in the middle of the action. About as noisy as you'd expect for being right in the middle of the action and next to a pub--we had no issues (and our baby slept great) but we live in a city and are used to some level of noise. Gavin was great at responding to our issues. There was a plumbing issue while we were there, but Gavin and the owner were all over it and actually moved us into a different (also nice) unit so we would be more comfortable. Highly recommend for those who want to be in the heart of the action in Temple Bar.
